An Inconvenient Youth – 2

Demography Youth Employment
An Inconvenient Youth

In 2015-2016, the “Lines cross”…

 

 

The Data

  • Between 1994 and 2014 the Youth Population in Australia [12-24] grew by  0.6%
  • In contrast, the Australian Population as a whole grew by 1.4%
  • In the last five [5] Years, the Youth Population [12-24] grew by 0.7%. The Australian Population grew by 1.7%

Over Time

  • From 1971 to 2014 the NUMBER of Young has increased from three [3,015,898] to four [3,984,650] Million, but the PROPORTION of young people in the total population has declined

Indigenous Populations in Australia

The Indigenous population trends in Australia are very different.

The indigenous population  is *MUCH* younger than non-indigenous population.

The Ratios

  • Indigenous YOUNG represent 27% of the total Indigenous Population
  • NON-indigenous YOUNG represent 17% and will decline further to 15% by 2049

Some Global Numbers

  • 15-24 Year olds make up 17% of the global population but 40% of the unemployed, a figure that doesn’t include those enrolled in school.

Policy responses?
