Coronavirus Supplement, the Australian way of income support in crisis

48min | 04/02/2021

Description

This is a 2-part podcast on the Australia's Coronavirus Supplement– an unconditional transfer trial meant to help contain the socio-economic damage brought about by COVID-19.

Our expert is Elise Klein, Senior Lecturer of Public Policy at the Crawford School of Public Policy, Australian National University. Amongst her areas of expertise are social security, unconditionality, and women’s economic security. Her recent research focused on the Australian experiment and the impact on its recipients.

The host is John Crowley, UNESCO's Chief of Research, Policy and Foresight.

PART 1: Australia’s Coronavirus Supplement
This first part looks into the design, unconditionality, links to Basic Income and impacts, including gendered, of the Supplement. It also delves into the lessons coming out of the experiment that others could draw on.

PART 2: Data for/in Policy
This part focuses on data and its use in policy – what are the gaps, how it is used, what researchers should be digging deeper into, and what policy makers should be paying higher attention to.

Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
