Thousands of people have rallied across Australia as part of a global movement calling on political leaders to focus more on science.

Marching for science in Sydney.
Crowds gathered in cities and towns including Sydney, Melbourne, Hobart, Perth, Brisbane and Townsville as part of the inaugural March for Science, which is taking place in 500 locations worldwide.

The movement was started by scientists sceptical of the agenda of US President Donald Trump, but Stuart Khan, one of the organisers of the Sydney march, said it quickly went global.
He said marchers were calling on politicians to take note that the public wanted policy based on fact.
