Summit 2020 and my vision for the future

Mr Rudd's top idea

I agree with Mr Rudd's functionalism unit.

The Prime Minister announced that he would like to continue the “national conversation” through the Australia 2020 website.

I believe that Australia, as a young country, needs to reconnect with its unique national identity and culture. To have the strongest sense of leadership is to preserve our heritage, culture, families and natural resources...I agree with the following proposals from the 2020 summit

The productivity agenda
One Curriculum: Create one national curriculum with freed up funds going to children in schools
Options for the future of Indigenous
Individual learning and health compacts (case management)
Population, sustainability and climate change
Australia will be the world’s leading green and sustainable economy
We will have harnessed the potential of our natural assets and human resources to turn the challenge of climate change to our advantage
The future of Australian Governance
Bill or Charter of rights for all Australians, including Indigenous Australians
Strengthening communities, supporting families and social inclusion
Establishment of the Housing Foundation to fund responses homelessness
Towards a creative Australia

Develop a national culture and design strategy and policy
