A Social Sciences Week special event

A lively evening of discussion and debate took place at the National Library of Australia (NLA) in Canberra, where the power of sport to bring us together or push us apart was explored, alongside a matched exhibition at the NLA. Esteemed speakers, Academy Fellows and published authors, The Hon Andrew Leigh MP and Emeritus Professor David Rowe, took the stage to discuss this fascinating theme, with Seriously Social podcast host and journalist Ginger Gorman moderating the debate.

The Great Sports Debate was a thought-provoking and entertaining event, with opportunities for audience participation and engagement.

This event was proudly brought to you by the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia and the National Library of Australia, with support from Synergy Group.
