Australia has been criticised by both domestic and international human rights bodies for engaging in some
contemporary human rights violations. In this assignment, you are required to select one of the issues identified
by the Australian Human Rights Commission (https://humanrights.gov.au/).
Issues include:

• Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Social Justice
• Age Discrimination
• Children’s Rights
• Disability Rights
• Race Discrimination
• Sex Discrimination
• Asylum Seekers and Refugees
• Rights and Freedoms
• LGBTIQ+
• Business and Human Rights
• Technology and Human Rights
  Your task is to research your chosen issue, where you will explore how the Australian Government has
  approached the issue historically and how it informs their current or proposed social policies. You are required
  to critically analyse the Australian response, in which you could compare it to international responses or
  discourse. You are to also write what a social work response to this issue may look like, through two key practice
  areas, policy, and direct practice.
  You are to discuss relevant key concepts such as power, marginalisation, oppression, social justice,
  intersectionality, etc. learned in this unit so far. Your report should include a discussion of three areas:
• History of the issue in the Australian context
• Analysis on current policies that shape Government response (be descriptive in the policy and its
  impact)
• Strategies for social workers to address the issue through two key practice areas – policy and direct
  practice.
