Australians for Constitutional Monarchy

What Australians for Constitutional Monarchy does

Australians for Constitutional Monarchy (ACM) is a private non-profit advocacy organisation founded in 1993 and headquartered in Sydney, Australia, dedicated to defending Australia's constitutional monarchy system of government. The organisation operates the Crowned Republic educational platform at crownedrepublic.com.au, which provides comprehensive learning resources covering the Australian Crown, Federation history, constitutional evolution, the role of the Governor-General, checks and balances, and the republican debate. ACM is self-described as the nation's oldest and largest organisation dedicated to this cause, and is widely credited with serving as the "engine room" of the campaign that delivered the 1999 referendum victory against the proposed republic.

The organisation's core product portfolio is an integrated suite of educational and advocacy assets: an extensive Learn content library, structured Debating Notes authored by National Convenor Lloyd Waddy RFD QC, the Neville Bonner Memorial Prize national school speaking competition held at NSW Parliament House, a Speakers Bureau Network, ACR NEWS PLUS TV (a multi-channel video platform aggregating Monarchy Australia TV, Save the Nation with Prof. David Flint, and Sky News Australia content), the Insight publication, and a Key Documents repository. Sub-brands include Crowned Republic, Monarchy Australia, ACR NEWS PLUS TV, and Save the Nation with Prof. David Flint. Leadership comprises Professor David Flint AM (former head of the Australian Broadcasting Authority) and Lloyd Waddy RFD QC (National Convenor).

ACM's business model is donation and sponsorship funded, with no commercial pricing, no API, no proprietary technology beyond the website platform, and a 6-employee base supplemented by volunteers. Revenue is generated entirely through voluntary supporter donations and sponsorships solicited via the website and events. The organisation serves two primary segments: the Australian general public (civic-minded individuals seeking constitutional education) and schools/educational institutions (engaged via the Neville Bonner Memorial Prize and Speakers Bureau Network). There is no disclosed revenue, no funding rounds, no parent company, and no commercial product lines.

Others
