Free or cheap condoms and emergency contraception should be available in schools, universities and sexual health centres, according to the Australian Democrats.
The proposal is outlined in a series of draft policies produced by the party, which is attempting to rebuild after losing all representatives in federal, state and territory parliaments.
The policies cover biosecurity, farm management, promoting and supporting the arts through education, a simplified classification system, supporting the internet and technology industries, care for the terminally-ill and reproductive health.
''Currently there is an enormous variation in the knowledge levels of Australians about sexual health and reproductive issues,'' according to the draft policy.
''There is also great variation in the availability of services and the legality of accessing certain options.
''... All Australians should be able to access the same choices and have the information they need in regards to their sexual and reproductive health.''
The Australian Democrats will push for reform in three areas sexual health awareness and education, pregnancy counselling and reproductive choices.
Primary and secondary schools' sex education programs should be audited.
Sexual health centres should receive more funding to provide free and confidential information, advice, counselling, contraception and testing for sexually-transmitted infections and pregnancy.
The Commonwealth should also fund a pro-choice pregnancy counselling service available round the clock.
