Joining an advocacy group
Advocacy groups campaign for social justice, human rights, or community change — often supporting migrants, refugees, and other under-represented people.
You can join an advocacy group by visiting their website or social media. To find out more about their work, sign up for newsletters or membership. If you want to be more actively involved, volunteer, attend events or donate.
