from The Conversation Hour · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation

The St Kilda PCYC (Police and Citizens Youth Club) looks set to close, much to the disappointment of its members and the local community. In this edition of The Conversation Hour we explore the what role youth clubs play in keeping young people socially connected.Also, later in the hour, the future of the abandoned Moe Hospital and why some are calling for it to turned into social housing, why a new report into the proposed Macquarie stadium recommends it should not proceed, plus why 'third spaces' are becoming a bit of a thing.
