Harmony Alliance: Migrant and Refugee Women for Change is Australia’s national migrant and refugee women’s coalition.
We are one of six National Women’s Alliances working to promote the views of all Australian women, to ensure our voices are heard in decision-making processes. Harmony Alliance: Migrant and Refugee Women for Change is a member-driven organisation, providing a platform for women from migrant and refugee backgrounds to advocate on issues that matter to us.
WE PROVIDE
an inclusive and informed voice on the multiplicity of issues impacting on experiences and outcomes of migrant and refugee women in Australia.
WE BELIEVE
that combining grass roots participation and strong community voices, on the one hand, with institutional reach and powerful policy advocacy networks, on the other hand, enables the opportunities for migrant and refugee women to directly engage in driving positive change.
WE ADOPT
a strength-based approach, harnessing the array of unique cultural knowledge, skills, abilities, perspectives and connections possessed by migrant and refugee women.
We acknowledge and pay respect to the past, present and future Traditional custodians and Elders of country across Australia and the continuation of traditional cultures of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
We are committed to active reconciliation and respect. Find out Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan Oct 2019 – Oct 2021 here.
