Afghans unite throughout western Sydney

Posted: Tue, Jul 14th, 2015

Australian Afghani youth and community leaders in Sydney’s western suburbs are working to overcome sectarian divides and bring harmony among their ethnically diverse young people of Pashtoon,Tajik and Hazara heritages.

A network of Auburn-based youth leaders is working with TAFE NSW in a campaign called Afghans Unite! that facilitates online and social projects to advocate for social harmony. The Campbelltown-based Afghan Fajar Association is also running camps and organising events with other communities to prevent young people going down a radical path.

The projects are attempting to overcome old ethnic divides that have been brought over from war-torn Afghanistan, typified by the persecution of a Hazara Shia minority, as well as tribal conflict between the two major Sunni groups – Pashtoons and Tajiks.
