Big Ideas 2016 was about encouraging young people to think about and explore concepts that could successfully and safely take Australia and by implication the Goulburn Valley deep into the 21st century. The project mentored young people to develop their thinking; encouraged entrepreneurial skills; supported ideas that were innovative and focused   on either the environment or social issues.

​
