Understanding Poverty and Inequality in Australia

The lessons encourage students to analyze and interpret data to discover the realities of poverty in Australia and its effects on individuals and society. Through the HPE, Mathematics, and Literacy lessons, students engage with real-life stories and explore initiatives that aim to reduce the effects of poverty and create better opportunities for all people living in Australia. The unit aims to empower students to take action and develop an action plan to reduce poverty in their communities in line with the UN's Global Goals.
