    Campaign Update

    Feb-Mar 2024

    Our Gaza Advocacy efforts are starting to pay off, alhamdulillah, with lots of major strides around the world. Learn more about our impact so far in our report.

    Advocacy: Amplifying Their Voices

    Muslim Aid Australia has provided essential aid like food, shelter, and medical care during crises for over 30 years.

    We've witnessed firsthand how humanitarian aid, while critical, is often not enough. Political roadblocks, bureaucratic hurdles, and entrenched systems of oppression can impede our efforts, leaving the root causes of suffering unaddressed

    That's why Muslim Aid Australia is stepping up its commitment to advocacy.

    We can no longer be silent. We owe it to the millions we serve to not just alleviate their suffering but to fight for the systemic changes that can prevent it altogether.
