This week: Mel and Tony talk around the topic of changing the voting age in NZ to 16. They ask why, why not, what are the downfalls, and what are the potentially overwhelming benefits? All this and more on the #ToolboxPodcast, this week!

This week: We talk to Mayor and Hamilton West council candidate Louise Hutt, about the local issues facing local young people, and why it’s so important to have diversity representing the city in council chambers.

This week: Mel goes Tony-less and takes the opportunity to yarn with 25 year-old Waikato Regional Council candidate Dan Armstrong, about why young people should vote, what there is for young voters to be excited about, and an alarming workplace statistic to arise from the NZ Workplace Barometer Report.

This week: The Young Workers’ Toolbox were captured recently by the story of Mia Griffiths and the racism she was abused with by a customer, whilst at work. So, we jumped at the opportunity to have a few discussions on the #ToolboxPodcast around discrimination at work.

This week: The #ToolboxPodcast duo discuss the effect an ongoing climate change crisis is having on young people, and not only their future in work, but their futures in general.
