Standing Against Hinduphobia in Australia
Hinduphobia—prejudice, discrimination, or hostility towards Hindu people, practices, or institutions—threatens community safety and Australia’s multicultural values. This hub raises awareness, offers support pathways, and promotes solidarity.
Together we can counter hate: document incidents, uplift voices, engage with institutions, and strengthen social cohesion.
Why it matters
Hinduphobia undermines safety, belonging, and the shared values that bind a diverse nation.
Addressing it protects people, culture, and social cohesion.
Attacks and harassment erode trust and wellbeing.
Hindu festivals, arts, yoga, and philosophy enrich Australia.
Respect across differences strengthens democracy.
Clear protections and reporting pathways must be visible and accessible.
