Members and supporters of Grandmothers for Refugees held their 200th weekly vigil on June 15 to protest ongoing bipartisan anti-refugee policies. The vigil coincided with the beginning of World Refugee week.

Refugee Rights Action Network WA held a banner calling for the right of refuge and return for Palestinian refugees.
