In Australia, who can vote at elections and stand for Parliament?

The Australian values tested in the citizenship exam reflect the shared beliefs that unite people from all backgrounds. These values, outlined in the Australian Values Statement, cover everything from religious freedom to gender equality.

The key to answering this correctly is understanding the purpose behind the value being tested. Ask yourself why this value matters to Australian society and how it affects the rights of all citizens. This is a foundational question that tests basic knowledge. Getting comfortable with questions like this will build your confidence for more complex topics.

Practice explaining each Australian value in your own words. If you can articulate why a value matters, you are much more likely to answer related questions correctly on test day.
