Professor Lucas Walsh is Director of the Monash Centre for Youth Policy & Education Practice (CYPEP) within the Faculty of Education at Monash University. His research explores the question: what do the contemporary political, economic, cultural, social and technological dimensions of young people's worlds like and how can education, training and policy better support them to navigate their worlds? His research also examines how evidence can be used more effectively to improve the life-outcomes of young people through education.
