What is your vision for Australia?
Today we are reaching out to every Australian as we embark on a major initiative to create a narrative and execute a vision for Australia. For this we want your input – your voice will be heard. At Global Access Partners (GAP) we have been running advisory bodies and policy consultations for 14 years. We have a strong online community. And now we are bringing it all together to create a synthesis of your views on the future of Australia.
We expect your input by the end of June. We will collect your ideas and produce a report that will be presented at the GAP Annual Growth Summit in September. Please contact Svetlana at sstankovic@openforum.com.au with your blog idea and help us actively shape the future of Australia.
Open Forum is an interactive policy discussion website hosted and moderated by Global Access Partners (GAP).

Future Vision
IDEAS re approach: – probably a series of futures with some kind of probability weighting – will need to consider key spheres of endeavour such as health; education; politics; resources and a like. – will need to articulate stepping stones to each separate vision element within each sphere – possibly based on three waves of implementation: over five years, over ten and over 20 years. Some Quick HEALTH SPHERE "futures" notes: – in twenty years public hospitals will hardly exist. They will be replaced by specialist centres. – in ten years abolish state health systems in favour of a single integrated national system. – in five years an increasing public vs private health services approach – in ten years most GP's will be online in some form. MY BIAS? – PCEHR is redundant – abolish primary and secondary care divides – national health care programs for action not more emergency beds – and I could go on.
