I’m writing to invite you to join the ACL Team and I in Canberra for our National Conference from October 24-25. Our conference theme, Speak Up, is taken from Proverbs 31:8 which says: Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Whether it is persecuted religious minorities in Iraq and Syria, the poor everywhere, our indigenous peoples, the plight of the unborn, the crisis in child well-being or the challenges to freedom of religion, now is not a time for silence. We are honoured to have the Leader of the Opposition, the Hon Bill Shorten, as our keynote speaker. He will join a stellar line-up of top quality speakers who will inspire us about our responsibility to bring justice and compassion into public policy.
These are challenging times globally and domestically. Now more than ever, our voice is needed. Come and join us as we tackle big public policy issues but also celebrate the great campaigning successes we have achieved together.
