Democracy in Australia: An Introduction

Learning all about Australian democracy doesn't have to be dry and boring. It can be dynamic and fun! Using attention-grabbing images and colourful animations, our youthful presenter takes students on a whirlwind tour of the basics of the Australian democratic system. We begin with an overview of Australia's secular representative government and major parties, followed by a step-by-step outline of the electoral process and three levels of government. Next we explore what it means to be an Australian citizen including our duties and responsibilities, and finally we discuss how we can exercise our rights and responsibilities as Australian citizens.
