Hearing from others is important for us. Recently, NASAA Organic hosted a Think Bank Workshop to explore broader issues, asking our participants to define ‘What success looks like” for the future of the organic industry. The feedback provided strong messages, suggesting we should continue the endorsement for domestic regulation, ensure a strong voice in the national conversation around regenerative agriculture, pursue the proportionate allocation for industry R&D and encourage greater youth engagement. It has been our pleasure to host an intern from Adelaide University this year. As part of undertaking her Masters at the Centre for Global Food and Resources (GFAR), School of Economics and Public Policy, Sage Lawless explored the best pathways to fast-track engagement from our younger stakeholders. In A Voice for Youth , we hear about Sage’s

work, and we look forward to her further contributions in future issues. As we head into the festive season, I would like to take this opportunity to thank my staff, Kate Parker and Lee Mastus. We are a small team here at NASAA Organic, but through the generosity of others, support of our members and a wider stakeholder family, a lot has been achieved in 2022. I wish you all a safe and happy festive season, and as always, our hearts and thoughts go out to those undergoing challenging times.
