"The
Strengthening Australian Democracy report released by Home Affairs
Minister Clare O’Neil this week provides a sophisticated diagnosis of the
challenges facing democratic governance around the world. The report also
offers a broad prescription of how Australia might meet those challenges.
The Strengthening Democracy Taskforce, established by O’Neil in 2023, prepared
the report, which is based on wide consultation and deep research. It positions
Australia as a global leader and innovator in democratic practice.
The report argues we need to recognise and safeguard against our own
vulnerability to anti-democratic headwinds and regard the defence of democracy
as an issue of vital international importance. We don’t want to become “an
island of democracy in a sea of autocracy”."
