Panel: The Foundation for Young Australians and the future of work
summary
Panel lays out concrete moves: a 12-month Code for Australia fellowship embeds three technologists in government to ship civic products (one school‑matching app is built but stalls in red tape), a civic lab and academy prototype collaborative governance; an education startup rewrites math content and says macronum uses Slack and Trello to run a distributed team successfully; Asia Options runs opportunity listings and a peer-reviewed language listings feature. Stats quoted: 4.3M youth, 24% grads struggle for full-time work, 60% of world youth in APAC; funding from FYA and Queensland government enables scale.
