Marriage. Australia. Be Informed.
There’s a conversation happening in Australia about whether or not to redefine marriage to be beyond the legal union of a man and woman ... to be also between two men or between two women. We began the Australian Marriage Forum to help shed some different perspectives on the discussion. Including your own...Observing. Informing. Responding.
We are individuals and organisations who are concerned at how advocates are pushing for same-sex marriage without presenting the reality of what this means for our nation.

Please join the conversation! And thank you for any support you can give for the expansion of our work.
