Vote for Humanity: Panel Discussion

A Vote for Humanity Public Meeting is being held at Fremantle Town Hall on Wed 30 April 2025.

All candidates contesting the seat of Fremantle will be issued an invitation to communicate their views and policies in relation to Israel's genocidal war on Palestine.

For many supporters of peace and justice, this will be a key issue in determining where they place their vote.

These meetings are being held around the nation in the lead up to the federal election. The initiative comes from Emeritus Professor Stuart Rees at the Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies at the University of Sydney. Awarded an Order of Australia in 2005 for his services to international relations and the Jerusalem Peace Prize in 2018, Stuart's work in campaigning for peace and justice is legendary.

In addition to candidates, the panel will include Naser Alziyadat (Muslim Votes Matter), Janet Parker (Jews for Palestine) and Ayman Qwaider, a Palestinian community member who has family in Gaza.

The meeting will not seek to endorse one or other candidate, rather allow discussion, debate and questions on this topic. A short video has also been prepared by Australians for Humanity to be screened at all meetings.

Information and merchandise stalls will be present on the night to advise what you can do beyond the election.
