PLACE’s 2025 Community Roadshow and Listening Tour was a national journey where we heard directly from communities about what’s working, what’s holding them back and opportunities for change. Over 12 weeks, we visited 53 communities across Australia, engaging deeply with place-based initiatives.
We brought it all together with a hybrid Capstone event, broadcast live from Melbourne, featuring satellite gatherings in Perth and Brisbane, and a national audience joining online.
On Wednesday, 2 July 2025, we heard key insights from the tour, as well as voices from across the country in a discussion moderated by journalist and presenter Brooke Boney and speakers:
- Sean Gordon AM – PLACE
- Luke Craven – PLACE
- Karyn Walsh – Micah Projects
- Rowena Mouda – Ngunga Group Womens Aboriginal Corporation
- Joselle Griffin – Tasmania Aboriginal Legal Service
- Daniel Daylight – Just Reinvest NSW
