In this inaugural Hugh Stretton Oration, Professor Davis will focus on the role and expectations of charities and government in addressing inter-generational poverty in Australia. He will discuss policies and practices, including pragmatic and innovative approaches, that might temper entrenched poverty. This policy melting pot is something to which Hugh Stretton who preferred pragmatism over ideology, experimentation over economic orthodoxy, would have been attracted.
