ACLRI POVERTY AWARENESS CAMPAIGN 

The Australian Conference of Leaders of Religious Institutes (ACLRI) is joining other Christian groups in supporting a campaign to place the issue of poverty on the agenda for the election expected later this year.

The campaign aims to raise the level of awareness of the extent of poverty in Australia, promote understanding of the structural nature of poverty and of the responsibility of elected governments to alleviate poverty.

The campaign was launched at Parliament House Canberra on June 23rd and advertisements were placed in selected media sites during the week of the launch.

A website and bumper sticker with the message Vote 1 No More Poverty have also been produced.
