Welcome to

Deliberations!

We firmly believe that active citizen deliberations are the cornerstone of a thriving democracy. To that end, we are committed to fostering a platform that encourages these vital discussions, thereby promoting enhanced governance and a more robust democratic society.

Australian Society

As Australians deeply committed to our society, we believe that an enriched understanding of our origins is the foundation of a robust democracy. We delve into the essence of Australian culture, examining the diverse population and honoring our indigenous roots, all while maintaining a keen focus on long-term sustainability

Economics

Renowned as one of the world’s most advanced economies, Australia boasts a dominant service sector, a readily employable workforce, bountiful natural resources, and a population characterized by mindful consumption. We delve deep into the nuances of the Australian economy, examining its current status and future potential. Additionally, we investigate the profound implications of behavioral economics, a theory that unravels the motivations behind individual economic decisions and their collective impact on Australia’s economy.

Remains Responsible

Government + Business

At Deliberation, we are deeply engaged in exploring the interplay between Government and Business. We acknowledge the government as a representative body of the people, thus holding a responsibility towards all Australians.

We delve into the crucial issues of governmental accountability, investigating how obligations to the populace are fulfilled during their tenure and embodied in their decisions. We further delve into the concept of the rule of law, examining the breadth of this principle as established by A.V. Dicey and its implementation in the Australian governance landscape.

Our exploration extends to the role of government within society and the multifaceted mechanisms through which it fulfills its duties. We aim to illuminate these critical dynamics that serve as the backbone of our democratic Australian society.

Environment

The importance of our environment to our existence is a truth that has been unequivocally established in recent times. No longer a speculation of centuries or decades past, it’s now widely recognized that our survival is intimately tied to the health of our environment.

In light of this, we at Deliberation delve into pressing environmental issues such as climate change, debunking myths that obfuscate its reality and implications. We scrutinize our energy consumption patterns, understanding that our use and extraction of energy significantly impacts our environmental footprint.

Further, we explore concerns associated with land use, water resources, and biodiversity, recognizing the interconnectedness of these elements in maintaining ecological balance. Our goal is to cultivate a discourse that fosters proactive measures for environmental conservation and protection.

Citizen Engagements

Democracy in Australia

Democracy lies at the heart of Australian society, and we at Deliberation are dedicated to unpacking the various dimensions that define it. We pay close attention to the key features that make a society democratic, focusing not only on its ideals but also on the reality of its implementation.

We delve into the corrosive impact of corruption, investigating how it undermines the core principles of a democratic society. Additionally, we study the crucial role of citizen engagement in the democratic process, recognizing that it empowers individuals to directly influence their governance.

Moreover, we examine the concept of human rights, an essential pillar of any democratic society, and scrutinize its realization in the Australian context. We aim to stimulate thoughtful discussions around these fundamental issues to contribute to a robust and inclusive democratic process.
