Northern Territory Young Labor (NTYL), also known as Young Labor NT, is the youth wing of the Northern Territory Labor Party, representing all territory party members aged between 14 and 26.[1] The organisation includes members from Darwin, it's primary membership base, to Alice Springs and Katherine, of which often come together for meetings and events. Nationally, Australian Young Labor is the oldest continuously operating youth wing of any political party in Australian history, being founded in 1926.[2]
Northern Territory Young Labor is very closely integrated with the territory party, with many members of the organisation following onto run for public office, including Shlok Sharma.[3]
Activities and roles
[edit]Northern Territory Young Labor is most active during state and federal elections, campaigning in the key seats of Solomon and Lingiari, most recently during the 2025 Australian federal election, seeing its entire delegation returned, despite the Country Liberal Party's 2024 Northern Territory general election landslide victory.[4]
The youth wing of the party meets several times a year and coordinates youth based political work, ranging from 'letterboxing' to hosting events. Each year Northern Territory Young Labor holds an annual general meeting to elect, or re-elect, it's leadership, often happening in December. At the annual general meeting several positions are elected by the membership, including four executive positions, President, Vice President, Secretary, and Women's Officer, and two National Convention delegates.
