As acknowledged in the second video below, politics can be a tad... humdrum. However, it is important. We will never see the change families deserve without engaging in politics.
Politicians need to hear what families need directly from parents and carers in order to implement suitable policy reform. In the lead up to an election, politicians and political candidates are especially keen to hear from voters - they want to know what might influence your vote! So, in Victoria and NSW, it's time to get talking with your local political candidates.
You may be wondering, how do we engage with political candidates? And how does politics even work in Australia?
We've created two short videos to help you get started, which you can squeeze into your already busy day as a parent:)
The Australian Political Landscape (4 mins 10)
Politics, Hey? Why and How to Talk to Politicians (4 mins 30)
