Culture
Australians are generally laid-back, open and direct. They say what they mean and are generally more individual and outgoing than many other cultures.
You may think that most Australians live in the 'outback' out in the country. In fact, more than three quarters of Australians live in cities and in urban centres, mainly along the coast.
Some key values that reflect the Australian way of life include:
- Freedom of speech
- Freedom of religion
- Democracy
- Equality regardless of sex, marital status, religion, nationality, disability or sexual preference
- Peacefulness
- A 'fair go' (equal opportunity) for all and support for the underdog.
