Description

The right to vote is regarded as a fundamental human right. When denied, it causes people to feel dis-empowered and unable to determine their own destiny or exert control over their lives, yet it is often taken for granted in modern societies.

This resource matches the struggle for women’s suffrage in Australia to the emergence of democracy in the colonial period and the advent of Federation. It is intended to illustrate to students the perceived worth of the ability to vote for people who have been denied that right.

The resource aligns with Year 5 and 6 Australian Curriculum History, Civics and Citizenship and HASS, and is part of our ‘Federation’ series.
