Dr Fiona Kerr – Replacing alert and alarmed with informed and engaged
from Communities in Control · host Our Community
“The world is a scary place. Or so our media would have us believe. Who controls the narrative we see on our television screens, or read online or in the paper? Why does it feel everything is going wrong? Governing for a population of alert and alarmed voters is vastly different to governing for a population of informed and engaged citizens. What needs to change in the system to ensure we are all informed on government policy, and engaged in the decision-making processes?"
