			The [[Centre for Independent Studies]] (CIS) is an Australian think tank established in 1978 that focuses on economic, social, and policy research. It is known for its advocacy of free-market principles, limited government, and individual liberty. The CIS has been involved in various policy debates, including those related to fiscal policy, taxation, and public spending. Its analyses often emphasize the importance of reducing dependency on government assistance and promoting self-reliance.

			{{H2\|History and Mission}}
	== External Links ==
			The [[Centre for Independent Studies]] was founded in 1978 by a group of economists and academics who sought to provide an alternative to what they perceived as the dominance of Keynesian economic policies in Australia. Over the years, the CIS has grown into one of the most influential think tanks in the country, with a focus on producing research that informs public debate and policy development. Its mission is to promote policies that encourage economic freedom, individual responsibility, and market-based solutions to social and economic challenges.

			{{H2\|Key Research Areas}}
⚫	*[https://www.cis.org.au/about ~~Website~~]
			The [[Centre for Independent Studies]] conducts research across a wide range of topics, including:
			- Economic policy and fiscal reform
			- Taxation and government spending
			- Education and workforce development
			- Social policy and welfare reform
			- Environmental and energy policy

			One of the CIS's notable contributions has been its analysis of government spending trends. In recent years, the organisation has highlighted concerns about rising public expenditure, particularly in areas such as welfare and healthcare. A [[https://www.afr.com/policy/economy/culture-of-dependency-lifts-spending-to-highest-level-since-wwii-20250722-p5mgu0\|2025 article]] in The Australian discusses the CIS's perspective on Australia's fiscal trajectory, noting that a "culture of dependency" has contributed to record-high government spending levels since World War II.

			{{H2\|Influence and Criticisms}}
			The [[Centre for Independent Studies]] has played a significant role in shaping policy discussions in Australia, particularly within conservative and libertarian circles. Its research is frequently cited by politicians, media outlets, and other think tanks. However, the CIS has also faced criticism from academics and commentators who argue that its policy recommendations often overlook structural inequalities and the role of government in addressing them. Critics contend that the organisation's emphasis on reducing public spending may disproportionately affect vulnerable populations.

			{{H2\|Publications and Outreach}}
			The [[Centre for Independent Studies]] produces a variety of publications, including policy briefs, research reports, and opinion pieces. These materials are available on its [[https://www.cis.org.au/about\|official website]], which also provides information about its research agenda and events. The CIS regularly engages with policymakers, media, and the public through lectures, seminars, and media appearances.
