What we’re about

Nurtured on the stolen lands of Ngunnawal and Ngambri Country, we are passionate about anti-racist learning and seek to empower people that identify as Bla(c)k, Indigenous, and/or people of colour (BIPOC) to centre their lived experience on their anti-racist journeys. What makes the Collective on Anti-Racism (COAR) unique is our willingness to put this into practice.

Since our inception, we have been committed to building a safe and strong community in Canberra for people to reflect on, learn more about, and connect through, anti-racism. We run a monthly anti-racist BIPOC-centred discussion group called ROAR with COAR and hold monthly autonomous community events.

Whether you have no idea what anti-racism is, or are a passionate activist, COAR welcomes one and all to our inclusive, fun and kind community. We are excited about the work we do, but even more so, the people we have gotten to know along the way, and we cannot wait to meet you at one of our next events.
