Diversity, Inclusion & Wellbeing

At Amnesty International Australia we recognise that prioritising diversity, inclusion and wellbeing is more than a legislative requirement, it is essential to our success in challenging injustice as a human rights organisation.

We are committed to:

• Being a truly diverse, inclusive and safe movement.
• Ensuring that our people feel valued, respected, heard and seen.
• Providing a safe and healthy environment that prioritises mental health and wellbeing.

Our Diversity, Inclusion and Wellbeing Action Plan translates our vision into actionable goals. It provides a shared commitment and direction, so we can work together to respect and value our diversity and build a more inclusive and sustainable movement.

The priority areas are:

• Creating an inclusive, representative and culturally safe movement for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff, activists and community partners.
• Creating an inclusive, representative and culturally safe movement for staff, activists and community partners with a culturally and linguistically diverse background, including people of colour and people with a lived refugee or asylum seeker experience.
• Strengthening the mental health and wellbeing of our movement.
