Australasian Parliamentary Educators are professional educators from Australian, New Zealand and Pacific parliaments, as well as other civics organisations, who are committed to supporting public understanding of parliamentary processes and democracy.

Australasian Parliamentary Educators aim to engage citizens with the history, role and functions of parliament. Through active learning programs, resources and community engagement, they support teachers, students and the general public in teaching and learning about civics and citizenship.

Australasian Parliamentary Educators meet annually to share experiences, and build their capability, knowledge and skills in delivering parliamentary education.
