The Straightening Project

Classical Greece invented the first democratic system.

Public officials had to undergo a process called euthyna — a formal review of their behaviour, and how well they handled public money. Citizens could directly challenge their conduct, question their financial decisions, and hold them individually accountable.

Modern democracies elect officials to represent all of us, not just the people who voted them in. Their role is to improve our quality of life, protect our rights, and keep us safe.

In Australia, our officials and institutions are failing to do that well. It’s our responsibility to make them perform much, much better, or replace them.

Euthyna solves that problem.

euthyna literally means “making straight”.
