Australia has resettling refugees and vulnerable people in humanitarian need

Australia has a long and proud tradition of resettling refugees and vulnerable people in humanitarian need. The refugees who come here are seeking protection from conflict and trauma. The 12,000 Syrian and Iraqi intake is an additional commitment and part of our contribution to international efforts to protect and resettle refugees. Priority is given to people who are the most vulnerable women, children and families with the least prospect of ever returning safely to their homes. Listen to this interview by Manal Al-Ani.
