Act for Peace · National Ngo
About
We were founded in 1948, by the then Australian Council for the World Council of Churches. We set out to provide urgently needed aid to refugees and others suffering in Europe from the horrors of the Second World War. Leading this work was a Methodist minister from Victoria, Rev. Frank Byatt. His mission was to unify Australian Christians of all traditions to work together to put the word of the Gospel into action. In 2008, our name changed to Act for Peace. Today, through projects with local partners, and advocacy with governments and others in power, we work to reduce forced displacement across Africa, the Middle East, Asia and the Pacific.
