We form collaborations
around causes

A Just Cause is an initiative of Australian Baptist Ministries that fosters collaborations in advocacy across the Australian Baptist movement.

Advocacy Roundtable

We host the Baptist Advocacy Roundtable, which brings advocacy leaders from State associations and Baptist Agencies together to develop a shared advocacy agenda, take up opportunities for advocacy collaboration, and launch joint advocacy initiatives.

Converge

Working with members of the Advocacy Roundtable, we host an annual gathering of senior leaders from Baptist churches, associations and agencies to speak with our nation’s political leaders about ways to achieve a more just Australia.

The Justice Report

The Justice Report is our flagship publication. It overviews eight communities with which members of the Roundtable are engaged and actions we believe Australian Governments should take to create more just outcomes for them.

Advocacy Campaigns

We work with members of the Advocacy Roundtable to identify advocacy campaigns to support and promote to churches and contribute education, worship and advocacy resources that churches can use to integrate justice into their congregational life.

The Justice Report

The Justice Report, with chapters from Advocacy Roundtable members, is our annual flagship publication. It overviews eight communities with which Baptist churches, associations and agencies are engaged and actions  we believe Australian Governments should take to create more just outcomes for them.
