What does a just economy look like — and who gets to design it?

In this episode of YARNS., I sit down with Associate Professor Rick Macourt a proud, queer Gumbaynggirr man, lawyer, and Managing Director of Strategy at First Nations Economics. Rick has shaped major systemic reforms across government and the private sector, from leading NSW’s first Indigenous budget process to reshaping First Nations affairs at Westpac.

We talk about queerness and power, truth-telling through Treasury, the limits of reconciliation.

This is a yarn about reform, resistance, and redesigning the system — on our terms.
