Your Mayor and Councillors have joined more than 40 councils nationwide to support people seeking asylum.

North Sydney Council is proud to stand with more than 40 councils across Australia as part of the Mayoral and Councillor Taskforce Supporting People Seeking Asylum.

Together, we are advocating to the Federal Government for policies that reflect fairness, compassion and dignity for people seeking asylum.

Council is committed to raising awareness of the challenges faced by refugees and people seeking asylum, while fostering a culture of welcome, respect and inclusion. We celebrate the valuable contributions they make and the richness they bring to our local community.

Join us in building a community that is inclusive, welcoming and supportive of all. You can make a difference by:
