Young people do not want to feel like a problem to be solved, nor a topic that adults discuss.

Instead, young people want to play a leading role in the communities where they live.

Why doesn’t money fall from helicopters? The video podcast.
Six episodes exploring everyday economics, globalisation, GDP, inflation, risk and much more, featuring an irreverent economist – who’s used to discussing economics on his (and our) social media channels – and a team of brilliant, curious Gen Zers committed to making the subject accessible to a wider audience.
