One of the ways Sophia works for justice is in the Human Rights Coalition, which several Sophia women helped to establish.
The Human Rights Coalition has now established a website - www.humanrightscoalition.org.au
Sophia will continue to publicise activities.
We are excited to hear that ten years after their first campaign to oppose the extinguishment of Native Title, Women for Wik are back, with determination to oppose the recent legislation regarding the NT indigenous communities. Sophia has endorsed them and we urge you to visit their website at www.womenforwik.org.
