About FORE Australia
Policy shapes everything. Yet too often, expert-led and community-grounded ideas don’t reach decision-makers in the right format or at the right time - stalling progress.
Policy Library of One-Page Briefs
Working with experts, we’re building Australia’s first Policy Library of One-Page Briefs - an online, centralised resource helping policymakers quickly find, evaluate, and act on evidence-based policy solutions.
Volunteer Training Programs
Our youth-led model fuels the Library. Each semester, we train 80-100 volunteer participants (selected from hundreds of applicants) who volunteer to help build the Library 1-4 days each week. In return, they get critical early career policy experience and an opportunity to publish on topics that are important to them.
Results
Since mid 2024, we’ve launched in Federal and Victorian parliaments, trained over 350 new policy professionals, and published briefs that have made it onto the floor of parliament - all to help make reform faster and fairer.
