Whitelion co-founder and CEO Mark Watt discusses breaking the cycle of disadvantage in this week’s edition of The Zone, a weekly column in The Age edited by Michael Short. The Zone is collaborative and is about activism and advocacy, with the purpose to ventilate arguments for moving an issue or situation from what is the case to what might be or ought to be the case.
In The Zone, Mark Watt talks about how mentoring, education, training, jobs and connection to community can salvage young people’s lives.
