Our advocacy work speaks out for and with children and young people. We fight for their right to be free from bullying, violence and trauma, so their future is strong.
It drives our mission to see all jurisdictions compliant with the Australian National Firearms Agreement through the Australian Gun Safety Alliance. It sees us work closely with school communities, governments and industry to make online spaces and devices used by children and young people safe. And it means advocating for children to be formally recognised as victims of crime.
It’s their right. And our ongoing mission to make it happen.
At the Alannah & Madeline Foundation, we also believe that we are stronger together. This is why we work in partnership with Government, industry and other community organisations to amplify the reach, scale and impact of our programs.
Over the next four years, we will advocate to ensure:
We believe children and young people are key agents of change and should have a central role in shaping the world in which they live, learn and play – the world in which they exist today as well as the one they will ultimately inherit.
From the shadows of the Port Arthur tragedy in 1996, All Australian governments came together to strengthen our gun laws with a National Firearms Agreement. Since then, the Alannah & Madeline Foundation has continued to advocate for firearm safety.
We advocate for the rights of children and young people to be upheld online and offline, including by governments and digital platforms, and for optimal safety standards to be built into all digital spaces and devices.
The criminal justice system, set up to deal with adult offenders, has struggled to respond to the needs of children. We advocate for children's rights as victims of crime.
