Churchill Fellows represent Australians from all walks of life and, in sharing insights gained from research into and first-hand experiences of international practices, they offer unique perspectives of value for Australian policymakers. This third edition of Policy Futures showcases the best of the Churchill Fellows’ ideas, and provides targeted and relevant policy advice.

It is intended that this publication will serve to increase the accessibility of valuable evidence and experiences to policy-makers within Australia. The University of Queensland and the Winston Churchill Memorial Trust also hope that it will encourage more partnership approaches toward developing public policy that are informed by broad groups of experts, including Churchill Fellows.
