We welcome the @ausgov announcement of an initial $6m in humanitarian assistance to the escalating crisis in #Sudan. It is critical international donors work with the Sudanese community and humanitarian orgs to ensure aid is reaching the most vulnerable.

"You can't be what you can't see, so the result of these statistics is that an entire generation of girls is growing up with the message that politics is not for them. We have to change this,” our CEO Susanne Legena told SBS News. #auspoll2022 #ausvotes

The Victorian Government just announced an inclusionary zoning levy that will create a pipeline of funds to build 1,700 #socialhousing properties a year and it is so good I'm going to explode with housing happiness. #EverybodysHome https://t.co/HfYyFNCJ0e

Young trans people are some of the most at risk in our community, and the Government has publicly said the #ReligiousDiscriminationBill WILL NOT protect them. That's not the kind of world we want to live in.
