Funded Activity Summary

Sanctuary and Security in Contemporary Australia: Muslim Women's Networks 1980 - 2005. This project makes an important contribution to Muslim women's participation in public life. It researches the scope and potential of social networks and, crucially, acknowledges that both religious practice and secular activities are legitimate facets of everyday multicultural society. The project proposes a dynamic account of Muslim women's achievements and challenges, highlighting the causes and symptoms of past and present insecurity. The key concept of sanctuary - as - security is both innovative and significant to contemporary political debate. The project will result in a reflective organisational history, online oral history, policy recommendations for the advancement of Muslim women, and scholarly publications.
