For the past six decades West Papuans have lived within genocidal conditions, experiencing violence, injustice, torture, and gross human rights violations.
Join other Australians to urge the Australian Government support a motion at the UN General Assembly in September to register West Papua on the UN Decolonisation List. The aim is to reach 1.8 million signatures, and then present these to the Senate in Canberra on 9 September. From there they will be taken to New York for the Opening of the General Assembly.
Help support the resolution prepared by the United Liberation Movement for West Papua (ULMWP) to list West Papua with the UN Decolonisation Committee.
