The theme of this year’s Canberra summit is Regional Futures which will capture the key issues impacting regional communities. Topics will include: The Jobs of the Future; Population; Health; and Education. Key drivers of regional development will be discussed through an economic and social lens.
Participants will then contribute to a Regional Policy Hack, facilitated by experts to explore the key policy ideas. This session will provide scope for new ideas, creativity and robust debate, whilst bringing insights from industry, academia, government and community groups. These sessions will ensure a collaborative and purposeful action list can be delivered to both sides of government to consider for the future for our regions.

The Regional Policy Masterclass – Frontier provides an opportunity for policy makers and regional leaders to contextualise and understand best practice in policy development. High level and experienced speakers will share their insights for advancing policy in Australia. Case studies will be used to shed light on both good and bad examples, and the session will also pose live policy problems that will be workshopped through an action learning platform.
The Regional Australia Institute (RAI) has a wealth of experience that will be drawn upon to ensure our learnings are shared, and that ultimately, we can all achieve better outcomes for regional Australia.
Use this Masterclass to hone your policy skills, understanding and engagement, whilst networking with like-minded peers who will become genuine allies.
