Report cover: Young Australians 2011

05 December 2011The 2011 survey provides a unique insight into the values and concerns of almost 46,000 young people across Australia. The picture that emerges is of young people who are positive about the future, committed to improving their educational and employment opportunities, and aware of those issues that are important to the nation. These young people, however, are juggling a range of competing demands and pressures, including coping with stress, school or study problems, body image and family issues. These findings should continue to inform policy-making and service provision relevant to young people’s wellbeing at both local and national levels.
