For the official launch of Refugee Week 2021 and celebrating the theme of Unity, the Refugee Council of Australia with the Wheeler Centre are having an online panel discussion exploring the question: what does it take to evolve from 'welcome' to 'unity' in a community?
In 2017, a retired Anglesea executive had the idea to build Scottish-style rowing boats of 19th century design with members of refugee and CALD communities in Geelong.
Peter Doyle was aiming to showcase their cultures, experience and qualifications to the wider Geelong community, and to have a central point for cultural festivals and other events celebrating Australia's refugee and CALD communities.
When a group of Syriac refugees from a land-locked city in Iraq took on the task, the result was much more than beautiful boats - it built bridges between communities.
The event will be hosted by Asher Hirsch with Shahad Bahnan, Mukhles Habash and Peter Doyle.
