A-Part of the Crowd
Project Details
A-Part of the Crowd aims to develop a national picture on how Australian young people (18-25 years) experience loneliness during life transitions by:
- Reviewing current approaches to supporting young people experiencing loneliness.
- Gathering stories from 400 young Australians about their experiences of loneliness during life transitions (e.g. starting university or work, living out of home).
- Co-creating an accessible, interactive online space to share the gathered stories and where visitors can explore the different experiences of others.
- Developing a model of care for young people’s loneliness based on the stories, review of current approaches and co-creation of the online space.
- Evaluating the responsive supports (including the online space and model of care) with young people for implementation in primary care and community settings.
