Justice and International Mission unit, Synod of Victoria and Tasmania
The Justice and International Mission unit exists to provide resources and to engage and educate others about issues of social justice.
The activities of the unit range from advocacy for refugee and asylum seekers to banning landmines; from gambling issues through to climate change; from issues of inequality to partner churches in the Asia Pacific.
While endeavouring to work alongside congregations and social justice networks, we also embark upon specific advocacy work aimed at shifting and shaping public policy. The aims of the unit are embodied in the Basis of Union and reflect the Uniting Church's concern for social justice and the care of God's creation.
