PPLS | AUTHOR TALK | Tony Ward - Bridging Troubled Waters: Australia and Asylum Seekers | Thursday 17 August 2017 | 6.30-7.30pm

[Edited extract from public address]

Join Tony Ward as he discusses both sides of the arguments surrounding Australia’s polarisation of asylum seekers and aims to bridge the troubled waters. 

Surveying a wide range of evidence, Bridging Troubled Waters: Australia and Asylum Seekers presents new insights on how best to approach a major issue for Australia’s future. Tony Ward takes a careful look at how most asylum seekers reach Australia, changing public attitudes, what policies work, and which do more damage than good.
