Act For Peace

Today, there are more refugees, asylum seekers and displaced people worldwide than at any time since World War II. That’s more than 50 million people forced to flee their homes to escape conflict and disaster. They are the world’s most vulnerable people; mothers and fathers struggling to feed their children; sons and daughters missing out on an education; people dying for want of basic medical care that we take for granted in Australia; and families who, after losing everything, are not getting the support they deserve to rebuild their lives. It’s a terrible injustice. And one that we can, and must, overcome. We believe that when people all over the world work together, big changes really are possible. We’re passionate about building a better world. And that’s why we’ve made it our mission to act in partnership with other passionate people, like you, across the globe to achieve safety, justice and dignity in communities threatened by conflict and natural disaster. We don’t think there is any task more important. Through your support of Act for Peace, you are part of a network of more than 140 organisations across 130 countries – the ACT Alliance. It’s a global grassroots coalition for action. Together we’re working to confront injustice and create positive, sustainable change in communities threatened by conflict and natural disaster. By working together we can share knowledge, resources, speak with a louder voice and, ultimately, achieve more impact. Thank you for joining us.
