Over the Australia Day long weekend in 2012, the Refugee Rights Action Network took a bus and 40 people to the Leonora Detention Centre. This event will give feedback on our experiences and impressions from the trip.

A number of people had never been to a detention centr...e before. The unaccompanied children here, along with some families, are detained indefinitely without charge or trial.

You will hear our accounts and stories from inside.

You will learn about a system that is intrinsically abusive and fundamentally breaches the Refugee Convention and the Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Prepare to be shocked and disturbed by the authoritarian, orwellian and kafkaesque nature of the detention system.

Come hear about the Journey For Justice
