|
 The Profile of Young Australians looks at the lives of young people in Australia, drawing on data gathered from a wide variety of organisations. Key areas covered by the Profile include demographics; family life; the financial circumstances of young people; young people in need of protection; the health of young people; lifestyle and health risk behaviours; leisure time activities; young people and the law; secondary school education; participation in further education, training and work; and young people and civil society. Each of these chapters has been written by someone currently working in the youth and/or community sector and has been peer reviewed.
The Foundation for Young Australians hopes that the Profile will be a catalyst for positive change in the areas where it is needed and will further the case for young people to have meaningful decision making roles and greater participation in the areas that are important to them.
The Profile can be accessed here. Please note that you can download PDF files but the full length of the Profile is approximately 500 pages so it is recommended that you select the print by chapter option.
