The Anarcho-Syndicalist Federation, the Australian section of the International Workers’ Association, announces today that the ASF and it’s members across Australia will fully participate in the provision of sanctuary for refugees in Australia who are at risk of being deported to Nauru and Manus Island.

In practical terms this participation will consist of the provision of food and other life necessities for refugees, and also through peaceful direct action in consensus with fellow community members in defending the sanctuary and any removal of the Refugees.

Ben Smith,

Assistant Secretary, ASF-IWA
