Social Policy Leadership Forum

Series Brochure

Many jurisdictions are working on similar problems simultaneously, but lack the means to gather rapid, rigorous and relevant learning from other systems to inform policy designs and aid longer-term organisational strategies. Often individual governments commission and develop rich evidence and analytical resources, and go through complex and difficult learning processes which are rarely available to other governments wanting to tackle similar challenges.

The Social Policy Leadership Forum is a series of high-level roundtable style events that aim to facilitate the sharing of knowledge and experience amongst Australian and New Zealand governments. The Forum brings together senior government practitioners and international experts in a frank dialogue to identify strategic opportunities in social policy.

To promote continued discussion amongst Forum participants, and share insights with a wider audience, this website features relevant papers, research links and other resources.
