They said he could never win – but since January 20, 2017, Donald J. Trump has been the President of the United States. As the experts scramble to explain why the American people elected the most unlikely candidate in American history, the political reverberations continue to be felt around the world including in Australia.
The CIS panel event - including experts Louise Clegg, Ross Cameron & Tom Switzer - examined the crisis in ‘Establishment politics’ that brought “The Donald” to power, and discussed whether a Trump-style political revolution could happen in Australia.

Despite the ever-escalating cost of health posing severe fiscal sustainability challenges, health reform has been dumped even more firmly in the politically too-hard basket since the ‘Mediscare’ federal election. A politically-feasible reform strategy is required to catalyse much-needed innovation in the health sector and deliver more cost-effective healthcare.
Jeremy Sammut, fellow researcher at the CIS discussed what it will take to achieve meaningful change in the $155 billion health sector, and the issues raised in the CIS’ Health Innovation Program’s 2016 report 'Medi-Vation: Health Innovation Communities’.
