Cranlana Confidential is one of the opportunities we’re creating for our alumni to continue to draw on each other’s experience. This online program is a series of 60 minute conversations, offering an opportunity for you to engage with a prominent alumnus from your own sector, or one you’re interested in. Our Lead Moderator, Peter Mares, will start the session with a one-on-one interview discussing the guest’s experience of trying to lead their organisation ethically and effectively, before segueing to a group conversation.
Capped at 20 participants, and conducted under the strictest confidentiality, this is your opportunity to talk frankly with leaders in your field, and engage in in-depth, meaningful discussion with your peers.
Exclusive to Cranlana alumni, these sessions are rare chances to share experiences with professional colleagues who can act as a sounding board, feeding into your thinking and actions on important issues.

The topic for this Session is – Is there a right response to historic injustice?
When former Prime Minister John Howard refused to apologise to the Stolen Generations, he justified his position this way: “I do not believe, as a matter of principle, that one generation can accept responsibility for the acts of an earlier generation.” If we take a different view — that is, if we believe historic injustice places ethical demands on contemporary citizens — then this raises difficult questions. What form might reparative justice take when the wrongs of the past cannot be undone? Is an apology sufficient or must there be material compensation too? If so, who gets compensated when the direct victims of injustice have already passed away? These and other questions will be discussed using texts drawn from Australia’s colonial past and the work of Melbourne-based philosopher Janna Thompson, author of Should Current Generations Make Reparations for Slavery?
This session will be led by Frank Di Giorgio, who is one of Cranlana’s most experienced moderators
