Inquiry Focus Areas
The following focus areas have been developed to aid individuals and organisations in the formulation of their submissions.
Chair of the Inquiry, Kellie Tranter:
The balance of the world is shifting in many ways. We see these changes around us every day.
Now, more than ever is the time for Australians to remember that sensible Australians have a respected and valued voice in international affairs that can be and often is separate from what our government says…
I urge all Australians to ensure their voice is heard and make a submission to the inquiry, even if only short. We encourage people to use the online submission form below, but if you would prefer another option for making a submission please contact IPAN.
Our People
The Inquiry Panel will be overseen by a Chair and a panel of experts who will collate submissions and compile an Inquiry report which will recommend ways forward to achieving a genuinely independent foreign policy for Australia.
Chairperson of the Independent and Peaceful Australia Network, Annette Brownlie:
The People’s Inquiry was launched to get organisations and individuals across Australia to contribute to a national conversation about all aspects of the U.S.-Australia alliance, including the social, political, military and defence, economic and environmental impacts, to create a more nuanced and informed foreign policy.
This Inquiry is only as strong as its submissions and having informed and varied voices will be integral, we look forward to hearing from you.
