About
Lin Hatfield Dodds is married with two teenagers and is a long time Canberra resident.
She has headed up UnitingCare Australia, been the President of the Australian Council of Social Services, chaired the ACT Community Inclusion Board, and is an active member of her local church.
Lin was ACT Australian of the Year in 2008, is a Churchill Fellow, and has received an International Women's Day Award for services to our community.
Lin is passionate about a fair go for everyone. She enjoys spending time with her friends and loves going to the beach with her family - in summer you can often find her camping along the south coast.
Policies
As the major parties walk away from action on climate change, a compassionate response to asylum seekers, and easing the load on families, Australia needs a sensible and constructive balance of power party more than ever.
A Green Senator for the ACT would take office immediately, ensuring better outcomes for Canberrans well as national leadership to deliver a fair go for people and a future for our fragile planet.
It’s close: last election the count for Canberra’s second Senate seat lasted three weeks, and the Liberals held it by less than 1%.
Lin will bring positive, practical, and trusted leadership to our national parliament – the kind of leadership that Canberra deserves.
