On 25 March 2026, the Minister for Youth the Hon Senator Dr Jess Walsh launched the 2025 National Youth Survey summary report at the Office for Youth’s annual National Youth Forum.
The survey is a commitment of the Australian Government’s youth engagement strategy, Engage!. The strategy outlines how the Australian Government will consult with young people and involve them in decisions that impact them, facilitated through the Office for Youth.
Designed in collaboration with the Youth Steering Committee, the survey aims to understand what issues are most important to young people and identifies opportunities to improve how young people are included in government decision-making.
The Office for Youth sits within the Department of Education.
