Act Now for Children
Ask the candidates in your electorate where they stand on child rights and wellbeing. Will they commit to real leadership for children?
We've made it easy—use our example questions and messages to contact them directly and demand action. Your voice can help put children on the national agenda.
The Act for Children campaign acknowledges the Traditional Custodians and their enduring connection to the lands, waters, and skies. We pay our respects to Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. In solidarity, AFC supports the Uluru Statement from the Heart and the need for truth-telling about the history and impact of colonisation. We treasure the rich and diverse cultures and customs of First Nations people – valued knowledge holders, leaders and partners in creating the conditions for all our children to thrive.
