WEBINAR Repeat Failure: Why Australia’s workforce programs aren’t working

October 15, 2024 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Australia’s social security system is placing ever more obligations and conditions on those it serves, while simultaneously reducing the support it offers to them. At the same time, record amounts are being spent supporting private and profit-driven providers to administer the system.

All of this is being done under the guise of helping people find work. In light of that rationale and the billions spent on the system each year, it is timely to ask whether Australia’s approach to workforce participation is serving its purported goal – to help people find work.

Join us for a special webinar from Anglicare Australia to learn about Repeat Failure, a landmark piece of research that unpacks why Australia’s workforce programs aren’t working. You will hear from:

  • Maiy Azize, Deputy Director of Anglicare Australia and author of Repeat Failure
  • Associate Professor Elise Klein of the Australian National University’s Crawford School of Public Policy
  • webinKristin O’Connell of the Anti-Poverty Centre.
