GetUp! is an Australian online activist group, which was launched in August 2005, the week that the Coalition took control of the Australian Senate. GetUp campaigns are community based, and are primarily coordinated through the Internet. They involve email, its website, and traditional media. GetUp is a non-profit organisation, and states that it relies on donations from individuals, organisations, unions and community groups for funding. GetUp describes itself as "a new independent political movement to build a progressive Australia". It identifies campaigns based on the interests of its members, which are usually issues such as "social justice, economic fairness and environmental sustainability". Wikipedia [ - ]
