WfaAR contributes to public consultation on the Anzac Centenary. We say this commemoration should be inclusive and low-key. In particular, it should be forward-looking encompassing changes like the Republic, not acting against national developments by enshrining conservatism, Britishness and the Union Jack on the flag. We also say 2015 would be a good year to implement the Republic as a fitting commemoration of the Gallipoli campaign and what it represents in the country today. We note that 2015 will also be the centenary of the women’s peace movement in Australia.
