Freedom Flotilla

The Freedom Flotilla to West Papua is an unprecedented event of creative resistance to the Indonesian occupation of West Papua. The initiative of Indigenous Elders of Australia and West Papua set out to build global solidarity and highlight the abuses of human rights and land rights carried out under the occupations of their lands on an international stage.

Refugee Radio

3CR would like to announce a timely and important new show to our grid - Refugee Radio. This new program aims to give asylum seekers and refugees a voice; a chance to speak out and let you know that they are just like us, people with hopes and aspirations, people who deserve to be treated as we would expect to be treated if, by the accident of birth, we found ourselves in their position. Refugee Radio is on air every Sunday at 10 - 10.30am on 3CR.
