The SEARCH Foundation is a left-wing, membership-based Australian not-for-profit organisation, with a number of high-profile members linked to the left of the Australian labour movement .[1] [2]
The SEARCH Foundation advocates for a democratic socialist and ecologically socialist Australia, while working towards achieving greater democracy, economic and social equality, environmental sustainability , human rights, and international peace and cooperation.[3] [4]
History [ edit ]
SEARCH was established in 1990 as a successor organisation of the Communist Party of Australia , with the object of promoting “greater understanding in the community of the main factors affecting social life, influencing social development and advancing social wellbeing.”[3] [5]
SEARCH also owns and controls access to the Communist Party archives, which are held in trust by the State Library of NSW. [6]
Activities [ edit ]
SEARCH regularly holds national speaking tours and runs a socialist education program. The Foundation publishes SEARCH News, featuring articles on US politics , Australian politics , and other international political matters. [7] [8]
Between 2007–2010, SEARCH held a series of roundtables in major Australian capital cities on progressive political issues, culminating in the Australian Left Renewal Conference at the University of Technology Sydney in May 2010.[9] International Women's Day marches and events in Sydney and Brisbane.
In 2020, SEARCH released a book entitled Comrades! Lives of Australian Communists , to mark the one hundred year anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of Australia .[10]

In March 2018, SEARCH hosted Jacobin editor Bhaskar Sunkara at Sydney Trades Hall .[12]
In 2018, with Amnesty International and United Voice , SEARCH hosted Singapore human rights and labour activist Jolovan Wham, who met with Commonwealth and New South Wales politicians to talk about human rights abuses in Singapore , which was subsequently the topic of an adjournment speech to the Australian Senate by Opposition Whip Anne Urquhart .[13]
