Conversations for Good: Across platforms

from Sydney Ideas · host Sydney Ideas

Dr Joanne Gray and Dr Rebecca Huntley discuss public discourse, digital platforms and democracy. Hosted by Fenella Kernebone. Is big tech skewing our views and undoing our capacity for tolerance? What actually divides Australians and more importantly, what brings us closer? How do we create – and regulate – spaces for dialogue that encourage open exchange, not outrage; that expand our worldview, not retreat into echo chambers? Held on 22 April 2026 at the University of Sydney, this was the first event in a new public series, 'Conversations for Good', which explores how we find shared understanding, respect for different viewpoints and have conversations that can make a real difference, for good.
