Our flagship project for 2026, and what most of our events this year will be attached to.
Briefings and parliamentary meetings that have built the movement for intergenerational fairness across Australia.
A public briefing held ahead of the National Conversation Development Lab's launch, sharing the vision behind the Lab, the work underway to strengthen Australia's civic infrastructure, and how policymakers, organisations, community leaders, and everyday Australians can be part of shaping what comes next through a coordinated, distinctly Australian approach to national conversation.
Following the launch of the National Conversation Discussion Paper, this Parliamentary meeting built on the momentum from November's meeting, moving into deeper collaborative and consultative engagements with the community through a facilitated discussion alongside members of the Intergenerational Fairness Coalition. The meeting reviewed efforts since November, examined ways to engage a wider range of stakeholders across governments, civil society and the community to inform next steps for the National Conversation Development Lab, and identified priority actions for the next phase, including pathways for localised engagement and coordinated leadership.
The second meeting of the re-established Parliamentary Group for Future Generations focused on sustaining momentum and translating September's dialogue into concrete action, including exploring the potential reintroduction and redrafting of the Wellbeing of Future Generations Bill, as developments across Parliament, state and territory initiatives, and civil society mobilisations shape the landscape for intergenerational fairness in Australia.
The inaugural meeting of the re-established Parliamentary Group for Future Generations in the 48th Parliament, marking a pivotal opportunity to reset the national conversation on intergenerational fairness and embed long-term thinking at the heart of Australian governance. Keynote speaker Danielle Wood, Chair of the Productivity Commission, explored opportunities to advance Future Generations Policy in Australia. The meeting reaffirmed multi-partisan support for future generations policy, strengthened collaboration between parliamentary champions and civil society leaders, platformed state-level initiatives shaping long-term thinking, and explored the case for a National Conversation on Australia's future.
An online briefing on the latest updates from the national movement to embed future generations thinking in Australian governance, with speakers Sophie Howe, former Future Generations Commissioner for Wales, and Thomas Emerson, sharing progress on federal efforts to advance the Wellbeing of Future Generations Bill and outlining how states and territories are stepping up with their own approaches to advance local action.
