This project aims to study three welfare delivery programs that particularly impact upon Indigenous peoples. Indigenous welfare recipients living in remote Australia are subject to regulatory frameworks that make social security payments contingent on meeting conditions, with significant penalties for non-compliance with program requirements. The goal is to examine the regulation and governance that underpin these three programs. The intended outcome is to identify social security principles and policies that are likely to work best in improving the welfare of Indigenous peoples while benefiting the delivery of social security in Australia and beyond.Read moreRead less

The ARC CoE for Automated Decision-Making and Society aims to create the knowledge and strategies necessary for responsible, ethical, and inclusive automated decision-making (ADM). ADM applies new technologies from machine learning to blockchains across a wide range of social sectors; it carries great potential and risks serious failures. The Centre combines social and technological disciplines in an international industry, research and civil society network. It will formulate world-leading policy and practice; inform public debate; and train a new generation of researchers and practitioners. Expected benefits include reduced risks and improved outcomes in the priority domains of news and media, transport, social services and health.Read moreRead less
