Background



Description


Connecting New Citizens to Australian Democracy

AUnity is designed as a friendly guide for newcomer and Australians. The website provides useful information about Australia, helps connect with the community and learn about values, history and daily life. A key feature is language selection, allowing users to choose their preferred language to make information easier to understand. Once on the website, users are encouraged to explore a variety of topics through AI Chat Boxes or trusted sources of information.


Our Approach


Our approach is to design a user friendly and accessible website, incorporating AI chat boxes, reliable information sources and a built-in page translator. The goal is to create a space where users feel informed and connected to their community. This platform can help Australians improve their civic rights, understand their community responsibilities and involve in local events and decision-making.
