Now in its 19th year, the largest online survey of its kind in Australia provides an important annual snapshot into the experiences and views of young people across the country.
This year in the midst of the COVID-19 public health challenge, Mission Australia says the Youth Survey continues to be an important platform for young people to have their voices heard.
"In this quickly changing world, young voices matter. Now more than ever, we want to hear from young people in Mudgee and Gulgong about the issues that affect them in 2020," Mission Australia's state director Nada Nasser said.
In times of increasing uncertainty it is important we take the time to listen to what young people have to say on issues that affect them, their networks and our nation.
"We hope that during a time when so many young people will be self-isolating, that they could spare 15 minutes of their time to participate in the Youth Survey."
The 2019 survey was completed by more than 25,000 young people aged between 15 and 19 years, including 6,576 in NSW. Last year the state nominated mental health, the environment and equity and discrimination as the most important issues facing Australia today.
Mission Australia's Youth Survey 2020 is open to all young people aged 15-19 years-old who are living in Australia, visit missionaustralia.com.au/youthsurvey. Closes on August 14, 2020.
