At The Oaktree Foundation, we believe that education is the most powerful force we have to change the world, and the Schools4Schools and Generate programs aim to empower young Australians in the future by creating educational opportunities and encouraging them to be come active, global citizens. The Oaktree Foundation is currently seeking to establish a highly selective national team to join these teams and enable the personal transformation of young Australians into highly effective agents of change.
- Schools4Schools Co-ordinators
- Generate Facilitators
In order to achieve the systemic change required to bring about the eradication of global poverty, we need to catalyse agents of change from within this generation. Each year Oaktree seeks to invest in 2,500 young people to be dedicated and effective agents of change. These agents are connected to the cause to eradicate poverty, committed to personal action, and believe in the possibility of change. They are influential, active, and equipped with the necessary skills, knowledge and attitude.
To invest in these agents we require skilled and focused facilitators who are dedicated to seeing them grow. Student Facilitators oversee the personal development of around fifteen young people– taking each along a transformational journey from awareness, to belief, to engagement. They maintain personal responsibility for their participants, investing in them on a weekly basis to tailor an experience that provokes their intellect and invokes their action.
These agents of change will grow within the context of a school and university communities, and become the critical mass that will grow this movement for change. These highly motivated young people will become the social entrepreneurs, policy wonks and activists we need to end extreme poverty. Our Schools 4 Schools and Generate programs provide the ideal community environments to foster their growth, as well as the opportunities for ongoing personal action, both during and beyond their time with facilitators.
If you think you have what it takes to become a student facilitator have a look at the position descriptions below. Applications close by the end of October 24th.









Not that young myself anymore (!) but would be happy to mentor facilitators or co-ordinators in Bendigo area. Cheers!
