Social movements in Australia

Social movements in Australia are collective efforts by groups of people advocating for social change. Notable movements include Indigenous rights, environmental protection, and LGBTQ+ rights. These movements often aim to address issues like racial equality, climate change, and discrimination. Activists use protests, campaigns, and community engagement to raise awareness and influence public policy. Successful movements have led to significant reforms, such as the 1967 referendum granting Indigenous Australians citizenship rights and the legalization of same-sex marriage in 2017. Overall, they reflect Australians' desire for a more equitable and just society.
