Fitzroy SIP August 2017 – Living and Dying Well

Christine Campbell has had an active and diverse career,  in the union movement, teaching migrants, in the Caroline Chisholm Society, and as an electoral officer. Until her resignation at the November 2014 elections, she was the Labor MLA for Ascot Vale for 18 years.

Holding strong views on matters like family respect and bioethics, she believes that people should be living and dying well. In retirement, she is a key member of Care Alliance. This community think tank has been studying closely the proposed Victorian legislation on assisted dying that is likely to be introduced later this year, following the ministerial inquiry into “end of life choices” conducted in 2016.
