Dear friends, supporters and members,
This month, we are aiming to raise $10,000 for our frontline, high impact human rights protection work. Donations will build our capacity to defend civil and political rights across Victoria.
Melbourne Activist Legal Support builds the courage of Victoria's vital social and environmental justice movements.
- Our tailored human rights education increases resilience
- Our activist legal resources build knowledge and capacity
- Our Legal Observer Teams provide reassurance through their visible on-the-ground presence.
We are proudly independent, grassroots, and all-volunteer.
Your donation will:
- Strengthen frontline human rights advocacy
- Train and equip legal observers so we can field more teams at more protest actions
- Build our capacity for human rights evidence gathering, reporting, and legal referrals
- Support our amazing volunteer lawyers and human rights advocates
- Support activists who are targeted because of their race, gender, sexual orientation, or political stance
- Provide Know Your Rights training to hundreds of new activists taking the streets for first time
- Produce more activist legal information resources
- Hold more police accountable for misconduct and excessive force
- Push back against anti-protest laws, expanding police powers, and increased weaponry
