Charting a Better Recovery - a Human Rights Law Centre & Castan Centre for Human Rights Law event

The twin crises of the COVID-19 pandemic and the first economic recession in 30 years have highlighted and deepened cracks in our community and shown the fragility of many things we take for granted.

Cassandra Goldie from Australian Council of Social Services, Mary Sayers from Children and Young People with Disability Australia, Katherine Temple from Consumer Action Law Centre, and Hugh de Kretser from Human Rights Law Centre discuss what does the recovery look like, and what lessons need to be learned so that future crises and the aftermath are better handled through a human rights focus, including an Australian Charter of Human Rights & Freedoms?
