    The state of play and into the future

    Today we have Julian Thomas and Bridgette Engeler. We ask Julian to paint us a picture of the state of play here in Australia and the oceanic region when it comes to digital equity. Julians work revolves around closing the digital divide and in the conversation provides valuable insights into where there is opportunity for social entrepreneurship and points to where systemic changes need to be made in the Australian digital culture. We then put the question to Bridgete Engeler on, how do we create  equitable futures for all?  Which dives us headlong into future strategy and the importance of dreaming up futures we want to live and future opportunities we want to enable for ‘voices of futures yet to be heard’. About our guests: Julian Thomas is Director of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Automated Decision-Making and Society, and a Distinguished Professor in the School of Media and Communication at RMIT University. Thomas was elected to the Australian Academy of the Humanities in 2017. Bridgette Engeler. Bridgette is a pracademic working across design, strategic foresight and culture.
