Although some governments in Australia have started to move
forward with integrity work, the journey for achieving truth-telling, integrity
supporting behaviours and anti-corruption practices by our politicians has a
long way to go.
Our politicians should take note – and more importantly
action – to re-build trust in our democracy.

Integrity Forum: 30 March - 1 April
Four students from Endicott College in Boston (Matthew Cruz, Greg Hosking, Luke Jodice and Jamyan Tamang) entered a 24 hour hackathon and developed an app that records and stores footage of interactions with police. Called ALive, the app stores the video files and enables users the ability to access the recordings without having to do so from the device they recorded on, meaning if something happens to the device, the user can still access the footage and potentially use it in civil or criminal complaints or at trials as evidence.

In the wake of disaster, communities usually end up with a bigger headache - piles of donated goods that aren't needed or suitable, and which end up as landfill. Giveit.org.au is a platform that allows people to offer donations but they are only accepted once a person or agency in a disaster area has identified a need. Donations of cash are also tax deductible. https://uat.givit.org.au/about-us/our-work-in-disasters
