Introducing Amony ....



We'd love to introduce you to Amony who joined us for Canberra Week.  Amony is the Young Women's Advisory Council Representative from Tasmania.


Hi my name is Amony and I am 19 years old. 

I came to Australia in February 2008 as a refugee from Africa Uganda. Coming to Australia has given me a lot of opportunities which I appreciate, and I am currently based in Tasmania

Being involved in the lobbing training has given me confidence and it has changed my negative thoughts. 

I participated because I like giving everything a go. After doing the lobbying as part of Canberra Week I finally made my choice of what to do when I finish college.

In Hobart I have been involved in different youth group activities, Student Aganist Racism, My Voice and blossom. Student Aganist Racism is on face book if you would like to have a look.
