A federal election is the key moment for Australians to have their say on how our country is run. In the lead-up to the poll, the ABC will be doing more than ever to hear from you and make sure your voice gets heard in the national conversation. Today we’re launching Your Say, part of the ABC Australia Votes: Your Vote, Your Say election coverage. It’s a way for you to help inform our campaign reporting and make it relevant and valuable for you. ABC Director of News Justin Stevens publicly announced the Your Say campaign on Thursday.
Your Say: Engaging Australians in the Federal Election Conversation
The Your Say initiative is a vital component of ABC’s broader strategy to facilitate meaningful public engagement during the federal election. By leveraging their expansive presence with reporters stationed across metropolitan, rural, and regional areas, ABC aims to capture a diverse array of opinions and concerns from Australians nationwide. The focus is not merely on observing the election but on actively contributing to the discourse by posing questions and seeking clarity on issues that resonate with the public. This approach is intended to provide both breadth and depth to the coverage, ensuring it remains relevant and insightful. Crucially, the initiative encourages Australians to voice what matters most to them, thereby potentially influencing political priorities and shaping future policy directions. Through this inclusive dialogue, ABC seeks to bring to light the issues that could define the election’s outcome and the country’s path forward.
