HI, I'm JAMES,
I'm one of your Greens candidates for Kurrajong in the upcoming election. I have called Canberra home since 2020, having moved here from Sydney for a quieter lifestyle closer to nature. Now living in Downer, I work as a Librarian at the National Library of Australia.
Growing up in poverty and living in public housing showed me the urgent need for a society that addresses inequality and the growing housing crisis. This experience is part of what drew me to the Greens—the only party firmly committed to ending homelessness and recognising housing as a fundamental human right. Since joining the Greens in 2011, I have been an active member of the movement, organising campaigns, engaging with our community, participating in activism, and standing as a candidate in the last federal election.
The ACT Greens have a bold and transformative vision: to build and acquire 10,000 high-quality public homes, create an affordable and secure food network, and establish a sustainable healthcare system that leaves no one behind. Change is truly possible, but only if you vote for it.
