More DescriptionThis report captures the outcomes of a Regional Regeneration Forum, hosted by South Australia's Commissioner for Children and Young People, Helen Connolly. It was attended by 172 regional young South Australians, including 150 students from years 8 and 9 (aged 12 to 14 years) Their mutual desire to be connected was clear, as was their desire to harness their creative thinking and help drive change to build confident, regional communities in which they can thrive. More specifically regional young people identified mental health, education, online behaviour, employment and job opportunities, as the key issues they face. These are the issues that cause them the greatest ongoing concern and which impact on them directly. In this report you will read about each issue in depth, and about some of the solutions regional young people have proposed to address them.
