In this report the author summarises the evidence what is relevant to Tasmania and show how Tasmania can be at the forefront of social inclusion. The evidence base comes from the many ideas that Tasmanians have suggested through their responses to the Social Inclusion Consultation Paper and input to the forums held state-wide; from the research of the Stronger Communities Taskforce; of the Social Inclusion Unit in Tasmania and the national Social Inclusion Unit in Canberra; from the wealth of international evidence now available and from the author's observations in meeting with many individuals and groups.
