Are young people really disengaged with news and current affairs? Or is this a myth? This online seminar, hosted by the News & Media Research Center at the University of Canberra, presents findings from a new report “News and Young Australians in 2023: How Children and Teens Access, Perceive and are Affected by News Media”. The report examines the news practices of Australians aged 8-16 years. Following a presentation by lead author Associate Professor Tanya Notley , Annabel Astbury, Head of ABC Education and the Chair of the Australian Media Literacy Alliance will respond to the findings.
