A new report was released in July 2023 with a focus on measuring youth index with regards to the progress of the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific region. The research was carried out by the Sustainable Development Solution Network (SDSN) Youth AusNZPac, a UN initiative lead by Monash Sustainable Development Institute (MSDI). The result show that the youth are left behind in almost all areas of these goals such as psychological well-being and poverty.

In this MOJO podcast episode, we talked to Isabelle Zhu-Maguire who worked on this youth index report. The conversation covers details of the research, youth activism, and the prospect of change and progress for young people.

Swapping coal for renewable energy always generates a heated discussion, but what's less talked about is the impact of such a transition on its sizeable workforce. So this week we talk about coal jobs and why the conversation around the coal industry's jobs are so important politically, environmentally and personally.

We hear from Geoff Dyke, Secretary for the CFMEU Mining and Energy Division's Victorian branch, to get an insider's perspective on the industry, including how workers from the decommissioned Hazelwood Power Station are still making the transition. The CFMEU is one of Australia’s largest unions and represents the miners and energy workers in coal.

But have you ever wondered what makes up an accent, or why someone might want to change theirs? What can accents tell us about each other and the society we live in? Accent is a part of communication but does modifying it interfere with our identity? Gillian Aeria takes a deep dive into the topic and meets some people who work with modifying them.

From social media influencers to your next door neighbour, anyone can easily livestream from the comfort of their own home.
