With analysis of international evidence and good practice, featuring case studies and links to further resources and thought pieces, the Growing youth employment package offers policymakers, practitioners working with young people and researchers an analysis of how commercial and social entrepreneurship can create new employment and provide learning and engagement opportunities suited to young Australians. It also features interviews with a young unemployed person and a number of representatives from organisations working to empower young people to transition away from welfare payments into sustainable employment.
