At The Australia Institute we are always looking for new ways to promote our bold thinking and big ideas. In 2024, our 30th anniversary year, with big challenges to our democracy, economy and environment, we launched our own publishing imprint, Australia Institute Press.

Our first title, What’s the Big Idea: 32 Bold Ideas for a Better Australia, was published in November 2024, to celebrate The Australia Institute’s 30 year anniversary. The anthology invited some of Australia and the world’s leading thinkers to each outline how we can make change for the better, on topics ranging from the housing crisis to climate change, from mental health to the Australia-US alliance.

Australia Institute Press is also launched a series of public policy essays, Vantage Point, publishing four times a year starting with Dr Emma Shortis’ analysis of the American election.

You can order our books through the store or buy them from your favourite bookstore or ebook retailer.
