This study built on information gathered through Giving Australia 2005. This data deposit includes the anonymised Giving Australia 2016 Individual giving and volunteering survey data, which focused on the motivations and behaviours around individuals' giving and volunteering practices. Along with the interviews and focus groups, the survey contributed to answering the following research questions: What are the rates and patterns of giving and volunteering in 2015-16? How are giving and volunteering behaviours changing over time including the use of innovative giving and volunteering platforms? How are innovations in social media and technological development influencing giving and volunteering? What factors influence people to utilise methods of giving, such as beque...

It presents core concepts and ideas, aiming to provide context, direction and a common language to the panel discussions and the panelist papers. The paper discusses the rise of new citizen collectives (grass roots initiatives, community trusts, social enterprises, citizen initiatives) as new forms of civic engagement in policy fields such as energy, spatial planning, social care, community provisions and social services more generally. Under such models, citizens take the lead in dealing with common, or localized problems and public issues and are directly engaged in developing and implementing solutions and services. The emergence of citizen collectives give rise to new practical and theoretical questions concerning the meaning of these citizen collectives for local communities and government. The implications of...

Economic structural change is a shift or change in economic conditions which affects how the market operates (Laitner, 2000) and is often caused when the functioning of an industry changes or a new entity enters the economy. Recently, structural change has been intensified by technological advancements, expanding markets, and more fluid international borders which have flow on internal national impacts to sub-regional levels (North, 2005)...

Such an isolated approach has done little to curb significant labour precarity and exploitation within the sector. Correspondingly, creative workers have sought to up-scale their networks, from local to global, to enhance their labour outcomes. This paper analyses the impact creative workers' up-scaled network arrangements on their labour outcomes. The research identifies significant policy implications concerning the support of up-scaled arrangements for economic segments that are vulnerable to labour precarity, such as the creative industries.
