ThursdayMar 5 2026Children and community safety: Can we move beyond criminalisation?Website
Despite decades of evidence pointing to harm caused by criminalising young children-and its ineffectiveness in making our communities safer- in NSW we continue to send children as young as 10 to prison.In November 2025, contrary to the recommendations of an independent expert report, the NSW Government made it easier to prosecute young children, with changes to the law concerning “doli incapax”: a legal presumption that children under 14 are incapable of criminal intent.Why do we seem to be going backwards? And in the face of concerns about crime and safety, how can we do better for children and our communities? Are other jurisdictions also following the same path?Join us to explore these questions.

Writing the world around us: Olivia De Zilva and Lauren FugeWebsite
As part of Constellations, hear young writers Olivia De Zilva and Lauren Fuge in a candid discussion about creating art in a world that feels increasingly fragile.
In conversation with Laura Pietrobon, Olivia and Lauren will explore questions including: how does the state of the world challenge our ability to write? Why is it essential for young people to tell stories about their realities? And what does it mean to create art while living in a world that often feels like it’s failing?
The conversation will touch on themes from Olivia De Zilva’s Plastic Budgie and Eggshell, works rooted in problematic and defiant nostalgia, and Lauren Fuge’s Voyagers, which explores the drive to explore and reimagine the future of our world.
