It’s true that Gen Z and Millennials are poised to play a crucial role in the upcoming Australian election, especially given their growing numbers as voters. Their disaffection and disengagement could be reflective of broader social and economic concerns, such as climate change, housing affordability, and job security. If politicians want to connect with these younger voters, they’ll need to address the issues that matter to them and show genuine commitment to creating a better future. Engaging them through transparent communication and grassroots campaigns could be key to turning their disillusionment into active participation. This election may very well hinge on how well the candidates resonate with the values and aspirations of the younger generation.
