Refugee Week is an annual event that raises awareness of refugee experiences and celebrates the strength, courage and contributions refugees make in our communities. This year’s theme, ‘Finding Freedom: Diversity in Community’ highlights the vital role community plays in all our lives. “The journey towards freedom represents the challenging path that many refugees take, escaping oppression and uncertainty for safety in a new place. In these new spaces, community is more than just a physical place or a group of people; community is a lifeline. It offers refugees safety, belonging, and the strength to rebuild.” – Refugee Council of Australia. At Circle Green, we proudly support Refugee Week and remain committed to advocating for the right to seek safety and belonging. Through our work, we strive to create positive change, equitable outcomes and inclusive communities where people new to Australia, especially those from disadvantaged or CaLD backgrounds, know their rights, can access justice, and are treated with dignity and respect. For more information, resources and a list of events please visit the Refugee Council of Australia.
