The Refugee Council of Australia (RCOA) is holding its annual national consultations on the future of Australia’s Refugee and Humanitarian Program.
We are seeking feedback, suggestions and concerns from refugee communities and individuals and organisations working with these communities.
This year’s consultations will focus on these key issues:
· international refugee needs
· Australia’s Refugee and Humanitarian Program
· post-arrival settlement support
· Australia’s policies towards asylum seekers
This is an important opportunity to share your views about Australia’s refugee policies.
Your feedback will inform RCOA’s annual submission on the Refugee and Humanitarian Program, to be presented to the Minister for Immigration and Border Protection and his Department.
