Refugee Week is Australia’s peak annual activity to inform the public about refugees and celebrate positive contributions made by refugees to Australian society. Refugee Week is held Sunday 18 to Saturday 24 June 2023. Over the past 20 years, Refugee Week celebrations have developed in a number of other countries. While there are minor differences in the dates for Refugee Week, all include World Refugee Day (June 20).
Sports Focus are privileged to be able to work alongside local refugee groups and settlement services to support the refugee community to feel safe, welcomed and included in sport and active recreation.
