Refugee Week invites us to celebrate with the theme, ‘A Million Stories’, to mark the one million permanent humanitarian visas Australia has issued since international calls in 1947 to help resettle people after the horrors of WW2.
This remarkable legacy of welcome is one we should be deeply proud of, and one that has woven a rich tapestry of shared stories into the heart of our communities and culture.
To join in these celebrations we are thankful to be sharing stories of welcome from across Australia, and celebrating the recent impact of our campaign to #EndTheWaiting which is re-launching during Refugee Week.
Join Common Grace and the NCCA’s Australian Churches Refugee Taskforce for a national webinar launching the 2026 #EndTheWaiting campaign.
