Making Life Good: An evaluation of a reputed exemplary residential support service for people with intellectual disability and severe challenging behaviour
T Clement & Christine Bigby
The aims of this evaluation were both formative (to help form or shape the program to perform better) and summative (to render a summary judgement about the program’s effectiveness at a particular moment in time). In addition, being able to provide a Victorian example of a service that has gone some way towards achieving ‘an ordinary life’ for adults from this hard-to-serve population was an important motivation for undertaking the project.
Opening Doors: Ensuring LGBTIQ-inclusive family, domestic and sexual violence services
Stephanie Lusby, Gene Lim, Marina Carman, Suzanne Fraser, Matthew Parsons, Jackson Fairchild & Adam Bourne

Digital Campaigning and Political Finance in the Asia and the Pacific Region: A New Age for an Old Problem
Joo-Cheong Tham, Andrea Carson, Adhy Aman & Amy Chinnappa
Democracies are experiencing a digital disruption. Disinformation is rife in elections, and there is interference by foreign countries as well; meanwhile, the public sphere is being undermined through virality (the premium on emotional appeals) and polarization (e.g. through filter bubbles and echo chambers). These challenges are exacerbated by an erosion of political autonomy with the ‘choice architecture’ established by information technology companies, together with the substantial market (quasi-monopolistic) power of ‘big tech’ companies.

Enabling mainstream systems to be more inclusive and responsive to people with disabilities: Hospital encounters of adults with cognitive disabilities. Report for the National Disability Research and Development Agenda
Christine Bigby, Jacinta Douglas & Teresa Iacono
The study concerns the interfaces across mainstream service systems, people with disabilities and their families, and disability service systems. Maximising the way members of these three groups communicate and work together is a major challenge in the current disability policy environment and one that significantly affects the quality of life of people with disabilities. We take hospital systems as an exemplar mainstream service system and people with cognitive disabilities (intellectual disability and traumatic brain injury)...
