Myanmar refugees

In camps along the Thailand–Myanmar border for refugees displaced by the conflict in Myanmar, almost half of the youngest children are malnourished. Act for Peace is supporting refugees to tackle malnutrition through innovative programs like a nursery school feeding program and community agriculture and nutrition.

Don't cut aid!

In the Federal Budget, we heard from the Government and Opposition on their foreign aid promises. The Government has once again delayed its aid commitment. Meanwhile, the Opposition recommitted to increasing aid, but without providing a timetable for this increase, this is just an empty promise. Take action today and ask both parties to hold to their commitments on aid.
