Australia, International Law and Armed Conflict: What are our obligations?
Parliamentarians are making decisions today that will define Australia’s compliance with international law in years ahead. From sanctions and arms exports to humanitarian aid and recognition of states, choices made now carry real legal and political consequences.
Join us in person for a discussion on Australia's role and responsibilities under international law during armed conflicts and environmental crisis.

He served as Australian Human Rights Commissioner (1995-2000), Australian Law Reform Commissioner (1992-1995) and was the founding Director of the Australian Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission (1987-1992). Internationally, he was a member of the UN Fact-Finding Mission on Myanmar (2017-2019) and currently is a Commissioner on the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and Israel.

Nationwide March: Protest Israel's President – Muloobinba/Newcastle
Israeli President Isaac Herzog is due to visit Australia, February 9–12, despite a growing coalition of human rights advocates, legal experts, anti-Zionist Jews and community groups calling on Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to cancel his invitation.
Herzog is named in the International Court of Justice order on the genocide in Gaza, and the United Nations Commission of Inquiry found that he “incited the commission of genocide” against Palestinians in Gaza. He has also been photographed signing bombs to be dropped on Gaza in 2024.
Herzog bears responsibility for the deaths of more than 71,000 Palestinians, the forced displacement of more than 2 million people and the escalation of settler violence in the Occupied West Bank.
Palestine solidarity groups have called nationwide protests on Monday February 9. Join them to demand this war criminal be held to account.

Paddle Out for Palestine at the People's Blockade
No coal for Israel. Stop fueling genocide.
This November, thousands are gathering at the Rising Tide People’s Blockade of the world’s largest coal port (Nov 27 – Dec 2) in Muloobinba / Newcastle, to take action for climate justice.
As part of this larger event, on Saturday the 29th of November, join our Paddle Out for Palestine: a powerful on-water action to oppose all coal trade with Israel.
We are calling on Palestinian solidarity campaigners to bring Palestinian and Lebanese flags to fly on the water while on kyacks. This is a non-arrestable action.
Rising Tide recognises that systems of oppression are deeply interconnected. The same colonial and extractivist forces driving the horrific genocide in Palestine are also destroying the planet’s life support systems. That’s why Rising Tide has partnered with a broad coalition of anti-genocide organisations to deliver this vital event.
Come to Camp Shortland for short speeches, before a short walk to Horseshoe Beach for the paddle out for Palestine. Bring your flags and your swimmers and we will provide the kyacks.
Nov 29 2025, 1pm - 2:30pm
Why?
Israel relies heavily on imported coal to power its war machine.
After Colombia cut coal exports, Australia stepped in, shipping over 130,000 tonnes in 2024 alone.
This trade is fueling genocide and violates the ICJ ruling that countries must not aid Israel’s occupation.
What will it achieve?
Together, we can send a clear message: No coal to Israel. No complicity in genocide. Bring your kayak, board, canoe, or just come to the foreshore in solidarity.

EXHIBITION: Visions - Through the Eyes of a Palestinian Prisoner
Visions Through the Eyes of a Palestinian Prisoner showcases the works of Mohannad Al Azzeh, a Palestinian and former political prisoner of Israel. Mohannad was arrested and imprisoned for two and a half years for being a member of a non-violent political group at his university, where he was studying fine arts. In custody, he turned to art as a form of therapy, even though this is not permitted by the Israeli forces. Many of his artworks were found and destroyed, however, he was able to smuggle out some drawings.
This exhibition contains original drawings made inside Ofer Prison in Israel, alongside paintings completed since his release which focus on life as a Palestinian in an Israel prison.
Open 12pm-5pm, Thursday 27th to Sunday 30th of November, and 6pm on Thursday 27th.
OPENING NIGHT EVENT - 'Visions: Through the Eyes of a Palestinian Prisoner'
Join us on Saturday 22nd November 2025 for an incredibly special event, the official opening of Visions: Through the Eyes of a Palestinian Prisoner, featuring the works of artist and former prisoner hostage, Mohannad Al Azzeh, held illegally in israel’s prison system, twice in his life.

Weekly protest outside Pat Conroy’s office (federal Minister for Defence Industry)
We continue to hold weekly demonstrations outside the office of Pat Conroy MP, federal Minister for Defence Industry, every Monday at 4:30pm. Join us!
OUR DEMANDS:
Stop arming Israel - a full embargo across all trade imports and exports
Sanction Israel to support all orders by the International Court of Justice, including those made under the UN Genocide Convention
Recognise Palestinian sovereignty
As Israel’s war crimes continue, our politicians offer only empty words (if that) and refuse to take any action to halt Israel’s genocide.
We must keep the genocide in the public mind, and apply as much sustained public pressure as possible on the Australian Government to cease their complicity in the genocide in Gaza, cut all military ties with Israel, and put in place sanctions.
Because Conroy is obviously indifferent to the deaths and suffering of Palestinians, we must inform his constituents of the Labor government’s complicity in Israel’s genocide, and try to pressure Conroy through something he does care about - losing votes and losing his job!

March for Humanity across the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Save Gaza!
MARCH FOR HUMANITY
SAVE GAZA
March across the Sydney Harbour Bridge
Sunday 3 August
- Israel: Let all aid into Gaza
- Immediate ceasefire and withdrawal of Israel from Gaza
- Sanctions now
- End the two way arms trade with Israel
The Palestine Action Group Sydney is calling for a mass March for Humanity across the Sydney Harbour Bridge next Sunday.
At least 127 people, including 85 children, have so far died from starvation in Gaza, along with over a thousand who have been shot and killed while queueing for aid in recent weeks.
The deliberate starvation of 2 million Gazans is a part of a broader plan, repeatedly announced by Israeli leaders, to either kill or expel the entire Palestinian population from Gaza. This is a genocide. Even if, under global pressure, Israel temporarily allows some food into Gaza, it will not mean the end of Israel’s goal of ethnically cleansing the strip, called by Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu “the Trump Plan”.
This extraordinary situation has led the Palestine Action Group to call for a March for Humanity over the Sydney Harbour Bridge next Sunday, 3 August, to save Gaza. We call on everyone, every individual and every organisation, who cannot bear to do nothing in the face of this atrocity, to join with us.
As Australia’s most iconic symbol, a mass march across the Harbour Bridge will send a powerful message to the world, to Gaza, to Israel, and to our own Government, that we are determined to stand up for humanity.
We call on the NSW authorities, and the NSW Government, to facilitate this March for Humanity.
In 2023 the Harbour Bridge was closed for a special march to mark World Pride, which PM Anthony Albanese participated in. That same year saw the Bridge closed for several hours to shoot a scene for a Ryan Gosling film. It can certainly be closed to stop a genocide.
We appeal to organisations and high profile individuals to please sign on and endorse this March for Humanity. See the link to a sign-on statement and form to endorse here: https://docs.google.com/.../1FAIpQLSecoymlZAprzS.../viewform
Our current plan is to assemble at Lang Park, Sydney, near Wynyard station, 1pm Sunday 3 August, and to march across the Bridge to the US Consulate in North Sydney; but please note these details may change.
We have lodged a Form 1 notifying NSW Police of our intentions.
Let's do this!
Save Gaza! Free Palestine!

Doors open 6.00pm, film starts 6.30 pm. Food and drinks available Followed by Q&A with the filmmakers.
Dare to Struggle Films, makers of Palestine under Siege, has released its latest documentary on the Palestinian struggle for self-determination.
Palestinians Don't Need Sidewalks takes us on a journey through occupied Palestine. It profiles, through Palestinian eyes, life under Israeli occupation. The film builds on the investigation of a Jewish professor, a Palestinian Australian student activist and a former politician into Israel’s settler colonial, apartheid society as documented in Palestine Under Siege.
The film also investigates Australia’s complicity with the Israeli-US genocide of Palestinians. Both major Australian political parties are endeavouring to reinvigorate our manufacturing industry by integrating it into the US military supply chain.
