In December the government announced that all children and their families in Australian detention centres would be released into the community while their refugee claims were processed. But not the children detained on Nauru. Ninety children are detained on Nauru. More than 80 children are detained in Australia, awaiting their return to Nauru. The conditions and treatment they experience are hidden from sight but recent reports by the Australian Human Rights Commission and the Moss Inquiry have revealed widespread abuse of children in detention. Amnesty’s Lost Children Campaign aims to get all kids and their families released from detention, once and for all. Amnesty International, in conjunction with the Monaro Refugee Support Group, Monaro Family Support and Cooma Baptist Church, is holding a public forum on Saturday June 20 (World Refugee Day) at 2.30pm at the Cooma Baptist church (cnr Boona and Baroona Ave), which will provide information about the situation and how you can help. Attendees will also hear a firsthand
account from Samantha, a young woman who worked on Nauru in the Offshore Processing Centre throughout 2013-2014, with Save The Children Australia. Samantha is a community development worker, with more than seven years of experience in the community industry. Starting her career at a domestic violence refuge for women and children in Canberra, Samantha then moved into working with other disadvantaged women in the local community. Samantha’s experience with working with the children, single adult females, unaccompanied minors and families within the Offshore Processing Centre is one that she is willing to share. Bede Carmody, Amnesty International Community Organiser will be speaking alongside Samantha. “The children locked up by Australia on Nauru need the freedom to have a happy and safe childhood and that’s why we’re holding these information sessions. “We want more people to stand up for what’s being hidden from them and how they can help free the children,� he said.
