Over the past thirty years, the Department of Youth & Community Studies has continued to evolve and develop, reflecting the social, cultural, economic, geo/political, technological and ecological changes that mark our historical moment.
Our focus on young people, youth justice, and communities is framed within our commitment to social wellbeing – wherein the ‘social’ starts with the ‘local’ and transcends borders, recognising and affirming the diversity of experiences and situated realities. Our understanding of wellbeing prioritises community engagement, and also includes our relationships with flora and fauna, our feathered and furry friends, and with the planet we share and call home.
