Submission on National Statement

Youth Workers Australia has asked two leading professors, recognised for their work writing youth work codes of ethics in Australia and the Commonwealth, to prepare a draft National Statement on Youth Work. We want this statement to give youth workers a strong, shared national voice and to provide a clear reference point for states and territories that do not yet have their own codes.

This document is a draft and your input matters. We invite youth workers, organisations, educators and anyone with an interest in youth work to review the statement and tell us what you think.
