Restoring HOPE

Refugee Week 2012 coming soon

Celebrate with us in the Library at 12 to 1:00 p.m. on Thursday 7-June-2012. 
Join us for free lunch and inspirational talks by refugee students.

Do you know the aims of Refugee Week are:
  • to educate the Australian public about who refugees are and why they have come to Australia;
  • to help people understand the many challenges refugees face coming to Australia;
  • to celebrate the contribution refugees make to our community;
  • to focus on how the community can provide a safe and welcoming environment for refugees;
  • for community groups and individuals to do something positive for refugees, asylum seekers and displaced people, within Australia but also around the world;
  • for service providers to reflect on whether they are providing the best possible services to refugees.
 Come to the Library to find out more!
