Local action groups

We are a group of activists from Central Victoria who have been championing human rights in Bendigo for 40 years!

The Bendigo Action Group usually meets at 2.00 pm on the second Friday of the month* at the Bendigo Library, 259 Hargreaves Street (meeting room 3, upstairs). However during 2020 (as the Library has been closed due to COVID) Bendigo Group has been meeting on Zoom – 5pm second Friday of each month.

We are always looking for new members to join us in championing social change.

Email us at bendigo.amnesty@gmail.com

*We meet each month from January-November, except Good Friday.
