Sail 4 Justice
Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
We are sailing to Manus Island! On our 3300 nautical miles journey, we are highlighting the Australian government’s abuse of refugees and First Nations peoples. We want to draw attention to the West Papuan genocide on our doorstep and show our solidarity with those on the frontlines of climate justice struggles here and everywhere in the Pacific region!
is invaluable!
Three months have passed since we launched from Birraranga/Narrm in May and a lot has happened for us and in the world in that time. We want to thank everyone who donated their time and their money as well as everyone who sent messages to the men on Manus and met with us along the way so far! With your financial support we travelled a huge 2152 miles, we protested and connected with communities in Warrang, Brunswick Heads, Meanjin, Adani blockade and finally, Gimuy. We have all the safety equipment necessary for the journey, hundreds of Aboriginal Passports and donations. We still need your help to support the final stretch of our journey through Papua New Guinea!
Costs involved (estimated amounts):
Medical donations for refugees on Manus ~ $2000 Travel costs for activists and refugees that we are meeting in PNG ~ $6500 Further travel costs for Indigenous Elders to participate in cultural exchange with Indigenous chiefs in PNG ~ $3200 Upkeep of satellite phones for communication between flotilla vessels and land crew ~ $1000 Emergency fund for boat repairs and maintenance ~ $10000 Gifts for the communities in PNG ~ $800
With the needed $23,500 our new goal is $41,678
Any costs that are unspent will be donated directly to the refugees on Manus.
The Freedom Flotilla is travelling with the Kangaroo Skin and ashes from the Sacred Fire at The Aboriginal Tent Embassy. We will be delivering Original Nations passports issued by Arabunna Elder and peacemaker Uncle Kevin Buzzacott and endorced by South Coast Yuin Elder, Lyle Davis, to the people imprisoned on Manus.
