The Common Good Project

Welcome! The Religion and the Common Good Project is an initiative committed to researching the principle of the Common Good in Australia. In particular, we explore what diverse religious traditions understanding of the common good can contribute to Australian society and social cohesion, policy priorities and new forms of social partnerships.

The University sees contributing to the common good as central to its purpose. The project aims to reflect the diversity of this work across our many Colleges while expanding our links with the wider community; not least our many alumni. Guiding our work is the Advisory Board which includes leaders from across industry, academia and public life.

We invite you to join us in this endeavour through participating in our events, listening to our podcasts, contributing to our publications and following us on other forms of social media as we explore ways to help create a fairer and more just society.
