Supporting Australia21 is a unique way to help shape the future. We are an independent, not for profit think tank promoting fair, sustainable and inclusive public policy through evidence-based research. We bring together the nation's best thinkers, researchers and policy makers to tackle real-world social issues and environmental problems that defy simple solutions.

Innovative public policy research - Tackling problems that defy simple solutions - Finding answers based on real evidence - Crossing political divides - Thinking outside the square

How will your donation be used?

Donations will be used to support our projects, including:

• helping lead an evidence-based national debate on alternatives to the prohibition of illicit drugs in Australia;
• establishing the Mindful Futures Network, a venture that will provide a national space to map and develop the application of mindfulness, empathy and compassion at a systems level, particularly to improve the health and proficiency of Australia's public and private organisations;
• 'Making our Future work', a project where we'll seek to add to the research base by talking directly to young people about how they feel about the future and work, to provide insight for policy makers across a range of policy areas;
• launching and publicising the report and findings from our roundtable on Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in our front line emergency responders;
• in partnership with The Australia Institute, stimulating a new national conversation about inequality and the role of the economy in Australian culture and well-being;
• engaging with young people about drugs and drug policy through our 'Smarter About Drugs' conversation pack; and
• making the findings of our work more accessible and encouraging public conversation on the challenges Australia faces.
