There was a question, I can't remember it well but it had the options:

Preservation
Sustainability

If anyone with a good memory can remember what they put, I'll be grateful :)

Members of a community have a peaceful protest outside Parliament, protesting against a proposed motorway in the area.
What is this an example of?
A Equity
B Perspectives
C Reconciliation
D Active Citizenship

or do you mean

Contour ploughing, selective logging, and fish quotas are examples of which concept?
Citizenship, Development, Preseravtion, or Sustainability. I thought Sustainability.

How did I recall all this, you may ask? That question is the most puzzling of them all.

Can someone who did the Whitlam Dismissal tell me what they wrote about the impacts?
I wrote about about the freedom rides, but i would of said, that the constitution has not changed since the event. So if the opposition blocks supply, then the Governor General still has the power to dismiss the government.

It changed the view of most Australians that the GG had to always act on the advice of the PM.

what about Australia having a trade agreement with egypt and france or something ..... i put bilateral but wasn't sure because bi means 2 and then ther was multilateral but when we went thru aid in class MULTILATERAL WAS AID GIVEN THROUGH AN INTERNATIONAL AGENCY LIKE UN ...still at that time it made sense

i guess im wrong the answer probably is multilateral
The answer is bilateral , because it is when funds are transferred by the government of one country to the government of anther.

Multilateral - when funds are transferred through another agency or international organization.

I seriously knew this shit
and thought bilateral meant to neighboring countries or some crap

ehh i wrote down multilateral :(:(

"I like the sound of that question. Australia's treatment of the refugees would have worked perfectly, being a current problem in Australia.
death penalty and the child sex trade wouldv'e worked well too."


Yeah I agree with the refugees but I don't exactly get the death penalty and child sex trade - firstly we don't have the death penalty in Australia and secondly I don't think the child sex trade is nearly as apparent in Australia as it is in places such as Columbia.. I don't exactly think those two were challenges to Australia in relation to human rights

Personally I wrote about refugees, social justice for minority groups eg aboriginals and aid - totally agree this was the most enjoyable exam
lol
but
in my geo assignment for human rights
one of the question was this.

Describe the role of Amnesty international(organization of human rights) and outline one of its current campaigns.

i wrote ,

The role of Amnesty Interantional is exclusively concerned with the protection of human rights involved in each case, either the ideology of the government or the beliefs of the victums. The object of Amnesty International is to contribute the specialty of human rights worlwide. One of its current compaigns is abolishing the death penalty. The death penalty completely goes against Human rights as it violates the right to life as proclaimed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Death penalty's is a cruel and harsh punishment to criminals which jeopardize justice. Amnesty International opposes the death penalty at all cost regardless of any crimes.

i got full marks for this

also for what is being done to adress this issue

* portrayed in gov commercials on TV
* schools
*citizenship cermonices
* websites

ehh i wrote a lot just cbf writing them LOL
