The first dimension @TraversMcLeod is outlining in a new 5 point plan for converting training into decent work and building employment pathways that benefit young people is about recognising and including young people directly in decision making. #MenziesOration
The second piece of the 5 point plan is about rebuilding hope by putting wellbeing and capability at the heart of a new youth guarantee that equips all young people for fulfilling jobs and careers. #MenziesOration
Third, is the need to re-imagine the role of government in the delivery of essential services, especially employment. This asks us to recognise Australians want government to partner in communities rather than just manage a market for job services. #MenziesOration
Fourth, is reframing youth employment as a core part of social license for business. Business must be part of the solution to address vulnerability & poverty, boost economic participation, and ensure operations support the communities they serve. #MenziesOration
Fifth, restore dignity to the education & care professions. The sad reality is not enough young people see a future for themselves in the education, health care & social services. This is because we don’t give those jobs the pay, conditions & dignity they deserve. #MenziesOration
