About Action Networks

Networks connect individuals who share a common interest, identity or expertise relevant to AIA’s campaigns. Some networks meet face-to-face whilst others rely mainly on email as their form of communication. Networks link AIA members and staff in coordinating and carrying out human rights campaigns in NSW.

About Local Action Groups

Local groups are about bringing AIA supporters together in their local area to share their passion for justice and human rights and live in their local area to work for human rights. All AIA supporters are encouraged to join a local group based in their everyday community.

Our local groups spread across NSW and carry out some of the most important work of AIA: raising awareness of human rights in the Australian community and giving people, regardless of where they live, the chance to get involved and make a difference.

Local groups usually meet once a month. By joining a local group you could be involved in:

  • organising events and stalls
  • letter writing campaigns
  • campaigning on behalf of prisoners of conscience
  • working on key campaigns
  • meeting with local MPs
  • working with local media
  • raising awareness about human rights in your community.

If you are interested in being involved in a local group, then please contact the Action Centre and we will be happy to put you in contact with the convenor of a local group near you.
