Tackling Poverty: Toni Wren's Insights on Youth and Loud

Hopefully a message of hope that poverty is solvable, that as a community we can come together, we can be kind to each other and we can also solve problems, and using the evidence and having the right public and political will, we can make progress and have the sort of society I think that we all want to live in.
Poverty is an issue that affects many, but how often do we hear about tangible solutions? In this episode of Youth and Loud, the hosts sit down with Toni Wren, the Executive Director of Anti-Poverty Week, to unpack the realities of poverty in Australia and discuss how communities can unite to support those in need. Toni shares her wealth of experience in social and economic policy, shedding light on how around one in six Australian children live in poverty.
Imagine five kids in every classroom facing this struggle. Yet, there's hope. Toni emphasizes that poverty is a solvable problem, especially with the right public and political will. The discussion touches on the recent government measures that have lifted many out of poverty and the crucial role of a supportive income system. Throughout the conversation, Toni's message is clear: by coming together as a community, being kind, and using evidence-based solutions, we can make significant strides in combating poverty.
This episode is not just informative; it's a beacon of hope for anyone looking to understand and address this pressing issue. Tune in to be inspired and learn how you can contribute to a poverty-free future.
