Erfanullah Abidi — Co-Founder

The views expressed here are solely my own and do not represent any affiliated organization As advocate, public speaker, and community worker, I dedicated to empowering refugees, migrants, and vulnerable communities. My work spans from serving as an interpreter and cultural adviser for NATO forces in Afghanistan to supporting military logistics for the Afghanistan Ministry of Interior (MoI). A key focus of my efforts is advocating for Afghan women’s rights and education, particularly in the face of the Taliban’s restrictions. As the Founder of Empowerment Network 132, I’ve helped establish underground schools for Afghan girls to ensure access to education. I also serve as an IEP Peace Ambassador and Positive Peace Activator, advocating for peace, conflict resolution, and social cohesion. I’m a Refugee Ambassador for the Refugee Council of Australia, a member for an Afghan Community in SA and volunteer for some other services clubs, working to amplify the voices of displaced communities and promote inclusion. I have received recognition for my commitment and dedications, including the UNESCO Adelaide Chamber Human Rights Award, the Courageous Spirit Award from TAFE SA, the Paul Harris Fellowship from Rotary International, and the Book for Peace International Award. Currently pursuing a Master of Counselling Practice, my work is driven by a commitment to human rights, refugee empowerment, and gender equality. I welcome opportunities for collaboration, public speaking, and partnerships that foster positive change.
