How the Fawkner community has shaped politics and the power the community has to change the future

The Fawkner community achieved the highest swing to the Greens and away from Labor at the last election. This followed a historic local council election result where the community rejected Labor to elect Sue Bolton from Socialist Alliance. The community came together and demonstrated how powerful they were.

Join us for a community forum to hear more about the power of the Fawkner community and hear about how communities can change politics and get action to end the genocide in Gaza.

Speakers:

  • Mehreen Faruqi - Greens Senator for NSW

  • Sue Bolton - Socialist Alliance Councillor at Merri-bek Council

  • Samantha Ratnam - Greens candidate for Wills 2025

  • Sheik Alaa Elzokm

  • Mai Saif - Free Palestine Melbourne

Refreshments will be provided.
