Activism at the Margins

We have started this channel in the wake of the inaugural Activism @ the Margins conference, RMIT Melbourne, where stories of resistance, survival and social change started to be shared. This channel will bring together theory and practice for contemporary activism, fighting for the most pressing injustices in the world today.

The range of streams include climate change activism, activism through media and art, Aboriginal activism, land and social justice rights, gender issues, and refugee and migrant rights with a focus on the themes of stories and personal and political experiences.

We respectfully acknowledge the Boonwurrung and Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation who have danced their dances, sung their songs and lived their culture on this land for tens of thousands of years. We pay respect to Elders, families and descendants who have been and are the custodians of these lands. Sovereignty was never ceded.
