In September, we will be heading to Philanthropy Australia's National Conference which is focusing on the theme "Purpose: Is it enough?"

Joy will be participating on a panel, Purpose and the Crisis of Trust alongside Steve Spurr, CEO, Edelman Australia, Lisa George, Global Head, Macquarie Group Foundation, and The Hon Jeffrey Kennett AC, Chairman, Equity Trustees moderated by Lenore Taylor, Editor of the Guardian.

Purpose and the Crisis of Trust
Trust is a vital ingredient that ties the fabric of our community together. It is essential for supporting social cohesion and building consensus around how we respond to social, environmental and economic challenges. But in Australia and around the world, people are becoming increasingly distrustful of government, business, the media and the not-for-profit sector. What are the implications of this for philanthropy and social change agents more broadly?
