Endeavour Forum is an Australian NGO dedicated to defending traditional family values and the right to life, providing resources and advocacy for pro-life and pro-family initiatives. We have special consultative status with the Economic and Social Council of the UN and have close ties with similar organisations both local and overseas.
Principles and aims
Endeavour Forum aims to enhance the status of the traditional family. We affirm that men and women are equal and complementary, not equal and the same. We support the right to life of all human beings from conception to natural death. Our aim is a society in which married women with children may work or not work in paid employment, as they choose. We can do this only by educating the public and the parliamentary representatives on the situation facing families today.

Militant feminism: an evolutionary anachronism
The original meaning of feminism was a belief in equal rights for women in spheres conventionally reserved for men. However, in contemporary politics, most militant feminists insist that the means for achieving equal rights involve abortion on demand (a violent form of birth control).
They also deny the intimate and physiological differences between men and women. Their action politics discriminates between men and women. They discriminate against men’s employment and demand taxpayer funding for institutional childcare, without equivalent payment to mothers who care for their own children.
In view of such beliefs, we consider militant feminism as an evolutionary anachronism – a Darwinian blind alley – where it inevitably leads to a birth rate below replacement level, a trend evident across most of the developed world. Radical feminists also deny that marriage is good for women, men and children, and refer to it as a form of “legalised prostitution” – except in the case of same-sex marriage, when it becomes an “equality” issue.
