Australian Made Innovation: Empowering Youth Entrepreneurial Cultures

This project aims to empower Australian youth through entrepreneurial and global thinking embedded in school education. The project establishes significant new knowledge about Australia’s innovation culture from youth, teacher, and community leader perspectives. It will investigate teaching and learning in classrooms across diverse communities to understand how we should build youth entrepreneurial cultures. Project outcomes will include a strategic framework to empower youth in becoming innovators as a foundation for long term change in Australia’s national innovation culture. Nationally, youth, teachers, and community leaders will benefit from a mindset shift in innovation cultures that are responsive to localized regional needs.
