Ed is a passionate campaigner, advocate and organiser dedicated to raising the voices of young people. Previously Ed established a Youth Advisory Committee in his local council area to provide young people with a voice on local issues and was also involved in the organisation of the School Strikes 4 Climate rallies. More recently, Ed has led grassroots election campaigns with the Australian Youth Climate Coalition and worked for state and federal MP’s. Motivated by a desire to change the way democracy looks in Australia and fight for young people’s issues, he started Run For It. Run For It is an organisation run by young people working to support and encourage young community leaders and young people from historically marginalised communities to fully engage in our political system and be part of setting a fair and bold agenda for our future.
