Paul Keating once said, "Change the government and you change the country."

With the election of the Rudd government, there is a renewed interest in the nation's future - both the challenges and the opportunities. Just imagine for a moment that you were in conversation with the new PM - what would you tell him about your expectations and hopes for Australia's future?

In Dear Mr Rudd, leading Australian thinkers offer essays on key areas of interest- climate change, the economy, human rights, the republic, water and much more besides.

Each "letter" is passionate and imaginative and will create discussion and debate. Here is a set of new ideas to provoke and inspire - not just for our nation's leader but for all Australians.
