Social Inclusion Down Under Symposium – Program

Social Inclusion is the new banner for social reform in Australia. But what is it? Are we simply following a ‘New Labour’ fashion or can we develop an authentic Australian version of social inclusion. How will it be different to social policy in the Howard era? What are its implications for future economic and social policy?

This first international symposium on social inclusion in Australia will be essential for all those seeking answers to these questions.

The symposium will feature:
Tony Fitzpatrick, University of Nottingham, a leading UK social policy researcher
Professor Paul Smyth, University of Melbourne and Brotherhood of St Laurence
Fiona Smith, Chairperson, Victorian Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commission
Dr Zoe Morrison, Australian Centre for the Study of Sexual Assault, Australian Institute of Family Studies
Associate Professor Gerry Naughtin, Brotherhood of St Laurence
Professor Stephen Sedgwick, Director, Melbourne Institute of Applied Economic and Social Research
Dr Boyd Hunter, Centre for Aboriginal Economic Policy, ANU
Professor Frank Castles, Emeritus Professor, University of Edinburgh and Adjunct Professor, ANU
Tony Nicholson, Executive Director, Brotherhood of St Laurence
