A timely manifesto for political, social, and cultural progress, challenging systems and reimagining a just future. The housing crisis, climate change, persistent gender inequity. A mounting mental health epidemic, a floundering media landscape, a political class that seems increasingly disconnected from voters ... If you're feeling overwhelmed by the state of the world, you're not alone. But here's the thing: we created these systems-and just as we made them, we can remake them. Better Things Are Possible is Jack Toohey's case for choosing hope over apathy. It's a rallying cry to replace defeatism with resilience and start channelling our energy into innovative solutions to the challenges we're facing. A more sustainable and equitable Australia is an achievable reality-we just need the courage to get informed, get connected and show up for the future we want.
