What’s the Big Idea?
The Wheeler Centre
Australia’s leading visionaries converge for a lively and candid discussion on the bold ideas shaping Australia’s social and political future. It is easy to be captivated by global agendas and headline-grabbing moments, but shaping Australia’s future will require homegrown creativity, problem-solving and true Aussie courage. In What’s the Big Idea?, some of our leading thinkers share their vision for the nation and explore how we can take back control of our future while tackling today’s most pressing challenges. Join host Jacinta Parsons as she welcomes Anglicare deputy director Maiy Azize, renowned psychiatrist Professor Patrick McGorry and historian Dr Emma Shortis for a thought-provoking discussion. Together, they’ll inspire and challenge, offering fresh perspectives on issues ranging from youth mental health and the housing crisis to the ever-changing geopolitical landscape.
