Sat/Sun 7-8 July   The recently formed Australian Refugee Advocacy Network (A.R.A.N.) will be holding its second annual conference. This year it will be in Melbourne. A very interesting program has been planned. Please see the Conference Program. (You may see yourself or a friend in the photo that is being used to advertise the conference showing our members holding up a sign at the Palm Sunday rally.) 

Julian Burnside will give a presentation. It will be a great opportunity to meet other refugee activists from other parts of Australia, 

Judy and I will be contributing at one of the workshops with participants on ‘Building your group or network.’ 

Cost of Conference $75, $40 Concession, (includes 2 lunches + tea and coffee.)  There is an optional dinner on the Saturday night provided by the Tamilfeast chefs at a Melbourne rooftop venue. Cost of dinner: $35
