Listen "INTERVIEW: Rona Glynn-McDonald on Amplifying the quality of Australia's political debate"

Episode Synopsis

A new organisation has launched in Australia with the aim of tackling political polarisation and division. Amplify says it has deliberately chosen to stand apart from affiliation to a political party to encourage national debate on community-driven solutions to policy challenges like housing and education. Kaytetye woman from Central Australia Rona Glynn-McDonald is a board member of Amplify. She has told Biwa Kwan the group is taking a different approach to finding policy solutions, including in areas like Indigenous affairs after the defeat of last year's Voice to Parliament referendum.
