Discussing Tech Policy and Encouraging Engagement

The importance of tech policy as a subset of public policy has emerged forcefully into the spotlight in recent years. With new technologies rapidly transforming societies, countries and governments all around the world are now grappling with the best way to shape these technologies to serve our collective long-term interests. This week we sit down with Johanna Weaver, Director of the Tech Policy Design Centre at the Australian National University, to discuss this important area of policy. We explore Johanna’s perspective on current tech policy challenges, the Australian approach to tech policy, and learn more about the Centre’s work.
