INTO THE UNKNOWN: NAVIGATING TODAY’S DEMOCRACY AS A YOUNG PERSON

Lian Sequeira and Joshua Shaw explore why young Australians are losing faith in democracy - and why that doesn’t mean they have stopped caring about it. Drawing on the pressures of housing unaffordability, climate change, insecure employment and misinformation, Sequeira and Shaw make the case for better civics education, more accessible and trustworthy news, and greater opportunities for young people to participate in shaping the decisions that affect them.
