Dr Anne Aly MP - Labor Member for Cowan

In today's episode we chat to Dr Anne Aly, the Labor Member for Cowan.


Anne is an internationally renowned expert in counter-terrorism and counter radicalisation, she has published over 100 articles and books on topics related to terrorism and international security. 


Anne was the only Australian to be invited to President Obama's White House conference on violent extremism in 2015. She has worked with the United Nations on developing programs and policies on national security and counter-terrorism. She is the recipient of numerous awards for her work and in 2016 she was awarded the Australian security medal.


This has to be one of my favourite episodes yet - Anne is so refreshingly candid, compassionate and vivacious. We chat about her entry into politics, have differing opinions to the collective in a political party and what's in store for her future. I am very grateful that she's joined us on the pod.
