John Howard Prime Ministerial Library

Civics Curriculum

The John Howard Prime Ministerial Library has developed a collection of accessible, curriculum-aligned Civics and Citizenship resources for students in years 9 and 10.

The learning resources developed use two key events from the Howard era - The National Firearms Agreement, and Peacekeeping in East Timor - to explore:

The process through which government policy is shaped and developed, including the role of Prime Minister and Cabinet (ACHCK103 - Year 9)
The Australian Government's role and responsibilities at a global level, for example provision of foreign aid, peacekeeping, participation in international organisations and the United Nations (ACHCK091 - Year 10).

The resources also provide teachers with a range of activities to develop students' Civic and Citizenship skills, including analysing historical sources, developing arguments, and considering different points of view.

Hosted by the University of New South Wales Canberra, the Howard Library curates exhibitions that introduce Australians to leadership and policy challenges from John Howard's Prime Ministership in a balanced and non-partisan way.
