What do the arts teach us?
Curiosity, Initiative, Grit, Adaptability, Leadership, Social and Cultural Awareness.
These are the qualities that Australian industry needs from workers in a post COVID- Industry 4.0 world.
Join Professor Anna Hickey-Moody over the month of October for this series of Instagram live discussions with key industry figures as she talks to community leaders, arts practitioners and researchers about the use of youth arts in a post-COVID world. We’ll be chatting about why the arts are vital for a strong, vibrant and sustainable economic recovery in Australia, how the arts instill critical qualities in Australia’s workforce and what we can do to ensure that youth arts are supported into Australia’s future.
