TESTIMONIALS

What people are saying about Vote Talk

“Our community members can only embrace Australian democracy when they feel their voice is valued and their input required.  Reactions of our participants convinced me that VoteTalk is not  just a talk – it’s also a chance for civic education, social integration, and information equity.  For our new citizens it’s saying “Welcome to Australia”.

VoteTalk participants surprised me with their attitude. Once they saw there is an official information source in their language, they were immediately emboldened with ideas of how and when they wish to vote.  Not knowing how to vote and how to choose for themselves have constricted their voice in Australia.

Votetalk has been that missing link between the CALD community and the Electoral Commission.”

“I thought I knew everything I needed to know about elections but I decided to do the interview and try the Vote Talk quiz. I was proven wrong. There was so much more to it, and I now understand exactly how the decisions made by different levels of government affect me and my family. Be part of the podcast. Its a great experience.”

Vote Talk participant

“The vote talk program is very important for our audience, especially those who are voting for the first time, to understand the process in Australia and how to make their vote count and avoid any chance of their vote being lost or voided.”

“We are absolutely thrilled the Vote Talk  program has been so warmly received by the community.

 It’s an incredibly important program, and we have been very happy to support this at our libraries and to work with a brilliant organisation like yours to make it happen for our community.”
