Welcome to a community-led listening and representation process called Independent Sturt. Our aim is to invigorate positive political discussions, foster inclusive participation in our democracy, and ultimately ensure the best federal representation for our community.

Be heard

We start with listening. By listening to everyday people in Sturt first, we will ensure your voices inform the selection and actions of a future independent candidate.

Be included

We want to do democracy differently. This means we are listening to you first, and then selecting an independent candidate who will take our views to Canberra. Doing democracy how it's meant to be done.

If this sounds like something you want to get involved with please start by taking our Sturt Community Survey.

Be represented (properly!)

Many people are disappointed by the way politics is done in Australia. Dodgy donations, vested interests, lobbyists… it's little wonder people have lost trust in the major political parties.

We want to see a Sturt Independent candidate elected to Federal parliament who cares about integrity, accountability and, most importantly, who votes on behalf of our community not their party leaders.
