Robodebt is more than a tale of automation-gone-bad. It is more than a ‘few bad apples’. It revealed deep cultural and systemic problems, not limited to DSS or Services Australia. As Robodebt demonstrated, being able to recognise and speak about ethical concerns is a key capability for providing frank and fearless advice. These ethical debates deserve the same degree of engagement as technical or scientific debates. Only then can we work towards minimising harms and beginning to address the complexity of policy problems public servants face every day. An ethical culture does not happen by accident. Leaders at all levels need to model ethical behaviour and commit to integrity. Speakers include: Dr Daniel Casey, Dr Sarah Ball and Dr David Gruen AO
After Robodebt – How leaders can embed a robust culture of integrity & ethics? is supported by a Social Sciences Week Spark Grant from the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia.
