Live-tooting the 2022 Wallace Wurth lecture, delivered by journalist, whistleblower, political theorist, human rights champion, Kurdish cultural advocate, award-winning author and survivor of Australia's offshore concentration camps: Behrouz Boochani. Delivered at UNSW on 13th Dec 2022.
Behrouz Boochani fled from persecution under the Iranian government for his journalism and advocacy for Kurdish language and culture.
His journey through many dangers led him to Indonesia, via a number of other nations that also do not offer safety to #refugees.
From here, he attempted, twice, to travel by boat across the open ocean to an original signatory (and major author) of the UN Refugee Convention: Australia. #auspol
