Every year Refugee Week celebrates the positive contributions made by refugees to Australian society, as well as raising awareness about the issues affecting refugees.
Coffs Harbour City Council partner with a team of community members and local service providers to create an exciting program of engaging opportunities to learn from and celebrate with our refugee community.
The 2017 celebrations included the Freedom Feast which saw hundreds of community members come together to share food and culture, the Refugee Film Festival and other events including art exhibitions and a school picnic day.
In 2018 Refugee Week will run from Sunday June 17 - Saturday 23 June.
