The policy brief titled A Fair Chance for Us All by the Multicultural Youth Advocacy Network (MYAN) Australia focuses on improving meaningful employment opportunities for young people from refugee and migrant backgrounds. It outlines the barriers these young people face, such as racism, interrupted education, and lack of recognition for overseas qualifications, which hinder their ability to secure stable employment in Australia. The brief advocates for targeted policies and initiatives, including labour market reforms, wage subsidies, paid internships, and community-based programs, to ensure that these young people can fully participate in the workforce. The policy brief also calls for the development of a National Youth Employment Strategy and support for employers to build culturally competent workplaces.
