We believe any decision to take Australia into international armed conflict should be made by the Parliament, and not by the PM or the Executive alone.

 

The campaign for reform

The decision to go to war is one of the most serious choices any government will face. The cost to the nation can be enormous, often with unknown consequences.

Australia needs a better process where robust debate and a parliamentary vote is held before deciding whether troops are sent into overseas conflict.

Australians for War Powers Reform (AWPR) launched the No War Without Parliament campaign so any decision to take Australia into international armed conflict should be made by our Parliament, not by the PM or the Executive.

Nuclear test survivor’s daughter calls on First Nations communities to speak up on AUKUS

“…find your voices and speak up strong in this public inquiry”

First Nations leader Karina Lester joins inquiry into AUKUS, highlighting nuclear testing’s impact on Country, culture, and future generations.

“Mr Marles said his government’s vision remained for Australia to eventually have eight nuclear-powered submarines, with three of those now being second-hand or ‘in-service’ as he preferred to put it, and part of a ‘good financial deal’.” #auukus
