Oaktree is young people leading, demanding and creating a more just world. Change starts with a simple belief - that the status quo is unacceptable. We envision a world where all people have the opportunity to thrive. For us, empowering young people is key to creating that world. Oaktree builds the capacity of young people and grows their influence, both in Australia and internationally. We’re 200,000 strong and 100% youth-led: by volunteers, campaigners, and students all 26 and under. We’re also supporters, alumni, donors and Live Below the Liners of all ages. Oaktree was founded in 2003 and is now established in the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales, Queensland, Tasmania, South Australia, Victoria and Western Australia.
