Revision as of 02:46, 20 February 2008
Template:Future The Australia 2020 Summit is a summit to be held on 19-20 April 2008 in Canberra, Australia, to "help shape a long term strategy for the nation's future" [1]. 1000 people will attend to discuss 10 "critical areas". Ideas and proposal are invited from the general community, and a web site will be provided for public submissions.
The 10 critical policy areas are:
- Future directions for the Australian economy – including education, skills, training, science and innovation as part of the nation’s productivity agenda
- Economic infrastructure, the digital economy and the future of our cities
- Population, sustainability, climate change, and water
- Future directions for rural industries and rural communities
- A long-term national health strategy – including the challenges of preventative health, workforce planning and the ageing population
- Strengthening communities, supporting families and social inclusion
- Options for the future of indigenous Australia
- Towards a creative Australia: the future of the arts, film and design
- The future of Australian governance: renewed democracy, a more open government (including the role of the media), the structure of the Federation and the rights and responsibilities of citizens
- Australia’s future security and prosperity in a rapidly changing region and world.
The summit has drawn bi-partisan support from Brendan Nelson of the opposition and will run as 10 working groups of 100 participants.[2]
