You may not have realised, but … what our good ideas achieved in 2010
What a year it has been! We’ve witnessed the fall of a Prime Minister, the rise of a woman to the top job, a hung Parliament, a drawn AFL final, a visit from Oprah, the Wikileaks exposé and supposedly a ‘new paradigm’. 2010 has had something for everyone.
For The Australia Institute it has been a year of significant achievement. It has been a year in which we can proudly say that we have lived up to our mission of conducting ‘Research that matters’. It has been satisfying to see many of the issues the Institute has been focused on coming to the fore of political debate.
