Every year millions of people are forced to flee their homes in search of safety. Refugee Week is Australia’s peak annual activity to inform the public about refugees and celebrate positive contributions made by refugees to Australian society. This year's theme is 'healing'.
Refugee Week in Australia is always held from Sunday to Saturday in the week which includes 20 June, which is World Refugee Day. In 2022, it will be held from Sunday 19 June to Saturday 25 June.
Each year, Refugee Week has a different theme. This is to raise awareness of the issues affecting refugees in Australia and around the world, to help the broader community understand what it is like to be a refugee.
The theme of Refugee Week 2022 is Healing.
