… when I joined Guardian Australia as founding political editor, I wanted to be part of a project that brought a new, independent, fierce and progressive voice to one of the most heavily concentrated media markets in the world.
From the start, we identified issues we felt were underreported and where we thought we could make a difference: the climate emergency, Indigenous affairs, gender equality, welfare policy, the treatment of asylum seekers. Nearly a decade later, and six years after I stepped up to be editor, I believe our reporting is making a difference.
On climate, we have consistently called out inaction and written about how things might be. We have held policy-makers to account and documented how global heating is changing the lives of Australians. We have helped to shift the debate on Indigenous deaths in custody via our years-long Deaths Inside investigation, and produced award-winning coverage of the fight for gender equality.
But the fight for progress continues, and we can’t do any of this without the support of our readers. It is your passion, engagement and financial contributions which underpin our journalism. We have no billionaire owner or shareholders. We are independent, and every dollar we receive is invested back into creating quality journalism that remains free and open for all to read.
If you are able to help with a monthly or single contribution, it will boost our resources and enhance our ability to continue this vital work. |
Thank you
