S3 E6 | Preparing for the future: Education, social cohesion and the power of social enterprise for young people
In this episode, Anthea Hancocks, CEO of the Scanlon Foundation Research Institute talks to Nathaniel Diong, founder and CEO of Future Minds Network on the transformative power of education and social enterprise in preparing young people for an uncertain future.
Nathaniel shares his personal journey of overcoming a sense of helplessness after high school and discusses the pivotal role of education in fostering social cohesion. He discusses the need for young people to develop empathy, communication, and conflict resolution skills to thrive in a rapidly changing world where many future jobs don't yet exist. He also highlights the impact of his Malaysian Australian heritage on his sense of belonging and connection within society. We hear how at only 16 Nathaniel founded and became CEO of Future Minds Network (FMN), an award-winning youth engagement and training organisation.
Listen now to explore how we can equip the next generation to thrive in a world where many future jobs don’t yet exist.
