Australia is one of just a handful of countries around the world that have legislated in favour of euthanasia. Every Australian state has now legalised voluntary assisted dying - and the territories are expected to follow after the federal government granted them freedom to legislate.

Today, we revisit our conversation with voluntary assisted dying campaigner Andrew Denton, on how to change a debate, combat misinformation and the voices that really changed the law across Australia.

When Andrew Denton committed to a lecture on the topic of assisted dying, little could he suspect it would lead to a political fight that would consume his life, and change a country.

From a debate paralysed for decades to a year of major legislative change, Denton speaks about the campaign that changed how Australians might die, and how they might understand care.
