The burden of pursuing federal anti-discrimination proceedings in Australia is essentially an individual one, with little regard to the collective dimension of such claims. This is reflected in the narrow approach to standing for organizations with established interests in areas affected by such claims, the scarcity of representative proceedings for breaches of federal anti-discrimination law legislation, and the lack of capacity on the part of the national human rights agency to pursue test case litigation or provide advice or support to individual complainants. In exploring these three key areas, this article highlights the shortcomings of the Australian regulatory approach and its failure to provide adequate mechanisms for redress that recognize the broader community concern in ensuring that discriminatory practices are identified and addressed.

澳大利亚联邦反歧视程序的集体层面

在澳大利亚提起联邦反歧视诉讼的负担基本上是个人负担，很少考虑此类索赔的集体层面。这反映在对在受此类索赔影响的领域具有既定利益的组织采取狭隘立场、缺乏针对违反联邦反歧视法立法的代表诉讼以及国家人权机构缺乏能力进行测试案例诉讼或为个人投诉人提供建议或支持。在探讨这三个关键领域时，本文强调了澳大利亚监管方法的缺点及其未能提供充分的补救机制，以承认更广泛的社区关注确保识别和解决歧视性做法。
