Why do we help provide First Nations youth cultural leadership programs? More than one third of First Nations youth do not finish Year 12 and make up more than half of young people in youth detention. At Insync, we are a business for purpose. Together, our collective impact is tangibly transforming lives. #propurpose #purposepledge #propurposepartner #businessforpurpose #profitforpurpose #purposedrivenbusiness #bethechange #bettertogether #propurposebusiness #collectiveimpact #transforminglives #businessforgood #charitableimpact #wearepropurpose @worldvisionaus @propurpose_

This month, we take time to recognize, celebrate, and reflect on the diverse cultures, histories, and contributions of Indigenous peoples across the United States. Native American communities have long been at the forefront of education, environmental stewardship, and advocacy, and their resilience continues to inspire meaningful change today. As educators, administrators, and leaders, it’s essential to not only celebrate Native heritage but also examine how our systems can better serve Indigenous students and communities. This is an opportunity to embed Indigenous knowledge and perspectives into our classrooms and curricula—not just for one month, but all year long. 💡 Native American Heritage Day on November 29 is a chance to reflect: How are Indigenous voices represented in your institution? What steps are you taking to make space for Native-led knowledge and leadership? Let’s commit to learning, listening, and taking action beyond November. #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth #EquityInEducation #IndigenousEducation #NativeVoices #DiversityInEducation #EducationalEquity

Looking forward to representing the Coalition for a #Feminist Foreign Policy in the U.S. at the Foreign Policy for America Leadership Summit today. As a Steering Committee member of this coalition since its founding, I am proud to advance #genderequality, #humanrights, and #climatejustice in this gathering of foreign policy leaders and experts. The summit’s theme - Securing the Future - is not possible without these principles.

Are local governments listening to young people? 🤔 Did you know that young people comprise 16% of the Town of Victoria Park’s population but are the least likely to complain or provide feedback? It was fantastic to work with the Town of Victoria Park’s Young Leaders to start to change this. The problem isn’t that young people don’t want to share their views, but rather that most young people don’t have the tools, skills and confidence to express their opinions or raise their concerns through existing channels, including at Council meetings. The Young Leaders are a group of volunteers that represent the broader population of young people in the Town of Victoria Park. It was my pleasure to upskill the Young Leaders in: 🌟Public speaking – building their capability and confidence; 🌟Effective advocacy – exploring how to obtain the views of the young people they represent; and 🌟Speaking up in a local government context – with a focus on deputations. The Town of Victoria Park’s commitment to diversity is admirable and it’s fantastic to see a local government investing in building the capacity of the next generation of leaders. Thanks to the Town of Victoria Park for the opportunity to contribute to the Young Leaders making the change they want to see in the world and being fantastic advocates for the young people in the Town. #publicspeaking #advocacy #youngleaders #leadership #localgovernment #youngpeople
