One of the speakers at the Engaging Young People in Lifelong Learning conference previously posted is Professor Johanna Wyn of the University of Melbourne. We are very pleased to report that Professor Wyn has been awarded an Australian Research Council Grant on Young Adults transitions from education to work. The project which will be undertaken over a three year period is led by University of Melbourne.

In a context of high levels of youth disengagement and unemployment, we invite all those involved in teaching, educational leadership, research and policy to share their thinking and experience on policies and practices that support young people’s multiple transitions.
