We also know little about how the rise of populist values among the electorate will influence charitable giving in the future. Using a national election survey conducted in Australia in mid-2019, this article examines the influence of populist values on charity donations. The results show that populist values are strong predictors of charitable giving and that those who hold these values are significantly less likely to donate. Among those who do choose to donate, the choice of charity is also strongly influenced by populist values. These results demonstrate that the increasing importance of populist values among the public will have significant implications for the future level and direction of charity donations.

The report aimed to develop a comprehensive criminal justice model that identifies a range of interventions from the time of first contact with police, to arrest, summons and bail, conviction and sentence through to release on parole. It recognised that while drug courts are an important part of the criminal justice continuum, they are only one of a number of responses to the extensive problem of substance abuse-related crime.
The report identified the demand for alcohol and other drug criminal justice interventions in Queensland, the drug treatment services provided in that state and proposed a number of foundational principles that should underpin the range of criminal justice interventions. It examined the conceptual foundations that that underpin an assessment and treatment framework, the assessment and treatment of individuals with alcohol and other drug issues in Queensland, the range of dispositional options available for offenders with drug and alcohol issues, discussed whether drug courts work, and for whom, provides an overview of best practice standards for drug court and proposes a new drug court model for Queensland.
