In just over two weeks, AAFCS mobilised more than 350 multicultural community members and over 20 organisations to sign a banner declaring: “Multicultural Voices for a Safe Climate Future.”
Signatories came from First Nations, Pasifika, Chinese, South Asian, Vietnamese, Filipino, Malaysian, and other communities across Australia. The campaign gained further weight when multicultural federal MPs — Sally Sitou, Zhi Soon, and Michelle Rowland — added their names.
The banner was carried to Canberra as part of the People’s Delegation, directly urging Parliament to set strong 2035 emissions reduction targets. It became a visible demonstration of multicultural leadership in national climate advocacy.
