Do you want to help shape a new Australian Government Youth Strategy?
If you’re aged 12-25, we want to hear from you to better understand:
- what issues matter most to young people in Australia
- how government should include young people in decisions that impact them
- how youth perspectives can influence policies and services across government.
There are two ways you can have your say:
- National Youth Survey
- Discussion paper
Find out which format best suits you below.
You can also share resources through your channels to help promote the consultations.

This is an online survey that takes 10 minutes to complete via a computer, phone or iPad. You can answer anonymously.
Your perspective and ideas will help us understand your top priorities and concerns as a young person living in Australia.
