1 December: Supporting the development and aspirations of South Sulawesi’s youth
Young people play a crucial role in development and progress, and in South Sulawesi young people comprise 25% of the population. As the landscape shifts from agricultural to urban spaces, the opportunities for youth change. What are the aspirations of these young people and how can they be supported to reach their full potential?
On Day 3, the AIC hosted experts, including members of the Research Advisory Panel, from the government, knowledge and NGO sectors to discuss South Sulawesi’s youth. This was followed by a panel discussion with PAIR researchers, who discussed their findings to date and their plans for the next stage of their research. They aimed to identify barriers to the fulfilment of youth aspirations and provide guidance on how governments can support them in education, training and empowerment.
Indonesian and Australian Government representatives delivered opening and closing remarks.
