    Petition: Permanent safety for refugees
    through
    Online Event

    Everyone deserves to live in safety with their families, and to have a place to call home.

    But around 700 people who have lived in the Australian community for years still don’t have the right to stay here permanently. They survived offshore detention in Nauru and Papua New Guinea, but under our migration laws, they are classified as ‘transitory persons’ and are not allowed to apply for any permanent visa.

    They currently live here on insecure, short-term visas, but there is nothing transitory or temporary about the lives they have built.

    They have raised children and families, found jobs and become part of our community. Many have close family members, including children and spouses, who are Australian citizens or permanent residents. The vast majority have already been recognised as refugees.

    Australia is their home.

    It is time for the Albanese Government to abandon these cruel policies from the past, and focus on real solutions for the future.

    Everyone who was previously held in offshore detention in Nauru or Papua New Guinea should be immediately granted a permanent visa.

    People stuck in visa limbo are speaking out, sharing their experiences and calling on the Albanese Government to act. And they are asking all of us to stand with them.

    For over 13 years, the Human Rights Law Centre has supported people and families who have survived offshore detention through legal action, public advocacy and law reform. We are proud to stand with our clients as they fight to remain in the homes they have built in Australia. The Human Rights Law Centre is hosting this petition together with the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre and GetUp, to show the Albanese Government it is time to let people stay for good.

    webinar/talk

    Action Network For everyone everywhere interested in Extinction Rebellion this talk, ‘Heading for Extinction (and what to do about it)’ is your entry point. We are facing climate and ecological catastrophe, and time is running out. Our political system is broken and our leaders are failing to protect us.

    Find out about Extinction Rebellion, an international movement using non-violent mass civil disobedience as a tried and tested way to force governments to take the action that is needed.

    ‘Heading for Extinction and what to do about it’ generally precedes the Non-Violent Direct Action (NVDA)/Civil Disobedience training. This introductory talk and NVDA training will help you get involved with the XR movement. We also run regular online orientation/Q&A space for new rebels, which introduces you to Extinction Rebellion, how it works, what its aims, principles and values are, and how you can get involved. NVDA training is an introduction for those who want to participate in mass actions and you can also take part in more specific action skills trainings.

    ‘Heading for Extinction and what to do about it’ provides an up-to-date and honest picture of what is causing the climate emergency, and what needs to happen, urgently, to prevent the worst of climate disasters. There are opportunities for questions and discussion.

    Come and explore how you can be part of the rebellion, starting now! All states and countries welcome.

    Youth Inc

    SAGE is a community for all folks who love and care for our planet. Our monthly gatherings are a space to nourish each other, so that we can nourish our world. Join us for an evening of delicious food, hearty discussion and new skills. The night will start with a shared meal, then we will move into community announcements, then into open space workshops, with lots of space for social breaks throughout. — On Sunday June 28th, we’re moving into our brand new home and we are SO STOKED about it! SAGE will now be held at YouthInc, an alternative school for 18-25 yr olds in a cool converted church on Pulteney St. We’re keen to build a mutual relationship with the generous YouthInc crew and help make the space our own for the long haul. Of course, SAGE is still (& will always be) for all ages. Young or old, parent or pensioner, first-timer or seasoned activist - everyone is welcome. So, to celebrate moving to our new home, the theme this month is “PLAY: Come over to our place” 🏡 The night will be created entirely by the community - anyone can bring a workshop or a discussion idea. And if you’ve got a mate who could run a good workshop on this theme, call them up & invite them! Some ideas: ✊️ Maybe “play” makes you think of playing with the rules, playing with new worlds and systems. 🏡 Maybe “play” takes you back to your roots and reminds you of childhood games you could bring 🏸 Maybe you have an idea for an unfinished workshop that you want to experiment with running 🎷 Maybe you want to bring an instrument, or an art form ‼️Or something else entirely! As always, you can bring a workshop NOT about the theme too - all ideas welcome. – Some other things you might want to bring… 🍲 A plate of food to share for the potluck dinner 🫒 Veggies or seedlings for the produce swap 🧵 Something to mend at the mending corner 🌟 Snergy to help shape the new space and make it our own!! Run through of how the night will (roughly) go… 4:30-5:15pm: Arriving, Sharing food. 5:15-5:45pm: Welcome, Community Announcements. 5:45-7:45pm: Open Space Workshop Sessions (including a break for tea/chats). 7:45-8.00pm: Closing Circle. All welcome. Come anytime that suits you. A new accessibility guide for YouthInc will posted soon. See you there!

NAIDOC Week is an opportunity for all Australians to learn about First Nations cultures and histories and participate in celebrations of the oldest, continuous living cultures on earth.

    This year’s NAIDOC theme is Fifty Years of Deadly. It’s a tribute to the people who built this movement, the Elders who stood firm, the organisers who made space, the artists who turned resistance into expression, and the communities who keep showing up, year after year.

    Karl Winda Telfer, Burka Senior Man and Neporendi Aboriginal Forum Incorporated Board member stated that “for 50 years, NAIDOC has carried the strength, stories, and spirit of our people. We honour the old as we walk in the new, lighting the path for the next generation. Deadly then, deadly now, deadly always”.

  • No Wave - Art As Action Fundraiser
    –
    The Wheatsheaf Hotel

    NO WAVE is proud to present ART AS ACTION, a night of poetry, music and art to raise funds to support grassroots activism.

    Join us on Wednesday July 1 at the Wheaty to hear talented local artists responding to the theme of ART AS ACTION. Art has always been a tool for collective liberation – a way to give marginalised people voice and agency, to build political momentum, and to tell alternative versions of the past, present and future. Now more than ever, we need to share stories, poems and songs that inspire us, radicalise us, move us to act, and connect us with other people and their struggles.

    Important info:

    Doors open 6.30pm, first set of speakers at 7pm. Line up coming soon!

    Tickets are $10 and free for mob. Buy through Humanitix – limited spots so get in quick.

    Zines, earrings, stickers and other merch will be available for purchase on the night.

    Drinks will be available at the bar and there will be a food truck outside.

    This event is a fundraiser, with all proceeds from tickets and merch (minus artist fees) given directly to two grassroots causes:

    50% of proceeds will go towards supporting the Close Pine Gap – Sacred Land Back Convergence in Mparntwe/Alice Springs. Held from July 18-20, it will bring together activists from around the continent for workshops and protest to say Close Pine Gap, End the US Alliance, and Sacred Land Back. For more info head to: https://closepinegap.org.au/.

    50% of proceeds will go to supporting “Preserving Pirltawardli”, a culture-sharing community gathering run by the Kaurna Collective. https://www.facebook.com/share/1GjLc6xHW3/

    Merch offerings: As part of the event, we will be selling hand-made merch and accessories including earrings, t-shirts and posters. All funds will be used towards Sacred Land Back Convergence and Preserving Pirltawardli.

    Contact closepg.ky@proton.me for further information!

    Logistic and financial travel support to Mparntwe is being offered for those wanting to attend the Convergence with support for mob as our priority. If you are a First Nations person travelling from Kaurna Yarta to the convergence please contact us to see how we can make the journey easier for you.

    First started in 2017, NO WAVE is a reading series held on the first Wednesday of every month at the Wheatsheaf Hotel, bringing together some of Adelaide’s best poets & other writers. Fans of poetry, fiction, memoir & more are treated to readings from established and emerging local talent.

    NO WAVE recognises that we are on the unceded lands of the Kaurna people. Always was, always will be, Aboriginal land.

    Coffee Outside - July

    Coffee. Bikes. Nature. Good company. High caffeine, low stakes. Break up your working week and join us for our Coffee Outside event! Coffee Outside is an international movement that started around a decade ago in California with the aim of bringing the cycling community together to talk bikes, coffee and adventure. Since then, it has spread around the globe, and in 2025, reached Adelaide! The premise is simple. Bring yourself, your bike, and a beverage of choice to the designated meeting spot at the designated time. Hang out with other people and their bikes and drink said beverages together. That’s it. Coffee’s in the name and we encourage people to go nuts. Want to bring your camp stove, grinder and moka pot and make everything there? How about hot water and an aeropress? Instant coffee? A thermos of batch you made at home? Tea? Fruit juice? Whatever it is, we don’t care, so long as you like it. We look forwards to sharing in this new event with you and hope to see you there!
