"Australia’s policy towards refugees and asylum seekers stands at a critical
juncture.
Global displacement is at record highs and many countries are retreating from
their responsibilities. At this moment, Australia can lead by example.
As Australia’s prime minister, Anthony Albanese, said on election night:
We do not need to beg or borrow or copy from anywhere else. We do not need
to seek our inspiration overseas. We find it right here in our values – and
in our people.
Those values should guide a principled and evidence-based response to the
global refugee crisis. This response should be grounded in fairness, humanity
and respect for Australia’s international human rights obligations."
