This unit takes you on an exciting journey to discover how Australia’s Parliament, political system, courts, and legal institutions work together like a ‘Justice League’ to protect people’s rights, deliver justice, and respond to the needs of a diverse and changing society. You’ll explore the foundations of Australia’s federal system, democratic processes, and political landscape—including the Australian Constitution and how it shapes law-making and government. Through hands-on activities like research, debates, and role plays, you’ll learn how politics and the law connect, who the key players are, and how the important principles of justice—fairness, equality, and access—are applied in everyday life. This unit will help you understand how politics and law shape the world around us and why they matter to everyone.
