The Effective Government Program examines how Australia can best ensure that its public institutions deliver active and effective government in the 21st century.
Delivering an active and effective government means tackling long-term policy challenges, delivering high-quality services to the community, weathering existential shocks from abroad, and instilling in the public a shared confidence and respect in their public institutions, and in one another.
The Effective Government Program spans several Centre for Policy Development initiatives, including the Early Childhood Initiative and the Wellbeing Government Initiative.
Research within the Effective Government Program since 2015 has included major reports on employment services, settlement and migration, criminal justice and early childhood.
At the Centre for Policy Development, our team is at the forefront of policy research and innovation in Australia.
