Pray for our politicians and leaders.

What can You do?

Change takes place when we raise our voices together.  When you write a letter to or visit your local MP's you are raising awareness, voicing your concerns and encouraging them to act. For more information on how to contact your local government, please download the PDF document found at: www.baptistworldaid.org.au under Catalyst/ Resources/ Guide to Meeting your MP.

Campaign For Australian Aid

Australian Aid seeks to celebrate the nations history of Aid giving and highlight its ongoing significance. Australian aid contributions are helping to reduce poverty and build fairer and safer communities all over the world.

Tax Justice

Hundreds of billions of dollars in tax revenue is denied to developing countries each year through multinational tax dodging. The use of 'tax havens' stop profits from being used in the countries from which the resources have come from.

Shine the Light

Multinational tax avoidance and tax dodging affects all countries including Australia. The Shine the Light campaign is particularly concerned with the affects of Tax dodging on poorer countries. Tax evasion is a complex issue and the 'Shine a Light' campaign focuses on only two main aspects; aggressive transfer mis-pricing; and false invoicing. The Micah challenge website contains a wide range of resources on the topic, including: simulation games and a guide for contacting local MP's.
