World Refugee Day Toolkits (containing posters, brochures, postcards, stickers, and refugee stories) were distributed to NGOs, community groups, and Migrant Resource Centres to help them plan and organise activities on and around World Refugee Day.
The World Refugee Day posters were displayed on hundreds of Sydney buses during June.
UNHCR's National Association Australia for UNHCR hosted a pledging event at the Sydney Opera House. Ms. Maxine McKew, a renowned broadcaster and journalist, participated as the keynote speaker.
