Justice Issues - Refugees & trafficking

They are two subjects distinct from each other, but we have an opportunity this week to look into both as a Corps.

Kat is taking a group from the Corps to see the premiere of the SBS documentary "Go back to where you came from" at the Welcome to Australia Party at Mitcham this week. For more details call her. Otherwise, look at your TV guide and check out the three part series that follows Australians put in the position of 'reverse refugees', taking a leaky boat to a detention centre overseas.

Also, look out on Sunday for the petition asking our government to meet their obligations as signatories to UN conventions and providing compensation for the victims of trafficking. It will be available in the foyer.
