ACM - NO REPUBLIC
Australians for Constitutional Monarchy (ACM) was established in June 1992 to preserve the Australian Constitution, the role of the Crown, and our National Flag. The organization played a significant role in organizing the successful ‘No Republic – ACM’ campaign for delegates to attend the Constitutional Convention. Since 1992, without government assistance, ACM has been at the forefront of defending our constitutional system.

Constitution Education Fund - http://cefa.org.au/
The Constitution Education Fund is a non-profit organization established in 1995 to increase public understanding of Australia's constitutional framework. It focuses on developing teaching resources for civics and citizenship and implements programs in schools and educational institutions. Key initiatives include the Australian Constitution Centre, essay competitions, and educational resources. The projects are funded through philanthropy and government grants. The CEFA report titled "Why National Constitutional, Civics, Citizenship Education Must Be a Priority for Australian School Students," published in March 2019, advocates for a national program to educate Australians, particularly school-age children, about the government's functioning, origins, and history.
