I believe the answer is:

inactivity

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'lethargy' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'visiting canberra pointlessly invite youth leader' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'visiting' could be 'in' and 'in' is present in the answer.
'youth' could be 'y' and 'y' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for inactivity that I've seen is " Lack of motion".)
