About the Greens

The Australian Greens are a political party based on four key principles: ecological sustainability, grassroots democracy, social justice and peace and non-violence.

Our movement is focused on delivering the plans we need to ensure that everyone has a good life.  We're committed to ensuring that all people are treated equally, that our environment is protected, and that big donors can no longer buy the influence of politicians and governments.

The Greens' plans will see billionaires and big corporations pay their fair share, so we can invest now to create hundreds of thousands of good jobs, ensure everyone has an income they can live on and bring down the cost of living, set young people up for the future, and tackle the climate crisis.

The Greens are powered by an amazing network of grassroots supporters and members across the country. This grassroots approach has delivered Greens at all levels of politics, from local councils to federal parliament.

Your involvement and support will only make our movement stronger.

Greens Across the Land

The Australian Greens is made up of passionate members and supporters who are committed to building a better future for all of us. We are a confederation of eight state and territory parties and the First Nations Network.

Our members everywhere are involved in local and national campaigns, running events and supporting community, formulating Greens policy, and deciding who will represent us in Parliament.

Across the country the Greens have elected representatives at all levels of government, from local councillors and mayors, to state and territory MPs, and federal MPs and Senators.

2022: 30 years of the Australian Greens

In 1992 Australia’s state-based Greens parties formally joined together to establish a new federal party: the Australian Greens. Since then, we’ve grown into the biggest third force in Australian politics.
