Asylum Seekers Centre

Our CEO Elijah spoke to @SBSNews about the unveiling of the Coalition’s immigration policies. Let us be clear: these policies and the rhetoric used when announcing them are deeply dangerous and rooted in racism. sbs.com.au/news/article/angu…

Healthcare professionals are speaking out. More than 100 doctors, nurses, and health workers have issued a collective call to the government: the current system is failing people seeking asylum and it must be fixed. View the full letter on our page 👉asylumseekerscentre.org.au/h…

Poverty is not accidental - it's enforced by policy. Many people seeking asylum are denied work, support, and certainty. Read our report on this failure of fairness and why we must fix the safety net for people seeking asylum: loom.ly/57QzZIw

The first person from the NZYQ cohort has been deported to Nauru under the new anti-fairness laws. The Asylum Seekers Centre stands against this unjust policy.

We’re here in Canberra for two days to call for a safety net for people seeking asylum. It’s time for fairness 📣 ⚖️

Our CEO Elijah Buol took the @TEDx QUT stage to share a powerful message on hope, resilience, and the human spirit. His story is a reminder that even in our darkest moments, hope is a force that can lead us forward. loom.ly/NPDdC20

On this #InternationalDayofPeace, we share the words of Yusra Mardini. With demonisation and fear growing, now’s the time to stand up for the dignity, protection, and peace every person seeking asylum deserves.

"Australia is made richer by migrants, refugees, and people seeking asylum who have reached for, and reached, its shores.” On Sunday and every day, this is the Australia we must remember, stand for and, act for." [3/3]

Great to host our friends Jana and Ogy from @asrc1 at the ASC to meet our new CEO Elijah and discuss our joint advocacy for people seeking asylum. #SectorPartner #RefugeeRights #Collaboration

People seeking asylum are disproportionately at risk of homelessness and at risk of being left behind. This is a growing crisis that can no longer be ignored. Thank you @jennyleong, our local Newtown MP, for your advocacy and for highlighting this urgent issue in Parliament.

In a time when anti-immigration rhetoric is getting louder, this is the kind of message we need to hold onto. One of our supporters shared this to our community — and it’s a reminder to stand on the side of welcome. We are all from somewhere.

The Asylum Seekers Centre is delighted to announce the appointment of Elijah Buol OAM as its new CEO. Read more about Elijah and his appointment on our blog: loom.ly/m0d0LGM
