Youth Unemployment - Freedom's Just Another Word For Nuthin' Left to Lose

Venue: Collaborative Learning Space 1, Old Arts

Public Interactive Learning Laboratory - Youth Unemployment

Is being young and unemployed a type of "freedom" that previous generations could ony dream about, or do our young people really have "nothing left to lose"? Now that you have the song stuck in your head... Everyone seems to have an opinion on this, SO we asked a bunch of researchers from different fields to come and talk to us about it. They asked for a bunch of people to come and talk back to them! What could possibly go wrong?

The format for the evening is:

• Short sharp talks by our experts (45mins)
• Questions (10mins)

• Interactive round tables covering a range of topics (35mins)

• Agree on a 10 point action plan to make tax better (15mins)

Come along, you don't need to be an expert, just have a general interest in the welbeing of young people and a desire to discuss the causes and impacts of youth unemployment.

We'll post the action plan and a video on the Election Watch website and we'll let the politicians know what you think (we are the School of Government after all).
