Organisation of African Communities

OACWA is a not-for-profit organisation that provides support, services and representation for all Africans in Western Australia at a state and national level.

The mission of OACWA is to provide a united and cohesive front of the African Communities in Western Australia. OACWA works to promote fairness for and responsiveness of the various African groups in the delivery and design of Government policies and programs. OACWA promotes multiculturalism as fundamental in defining what it means to be Australian in the modern time and to address issues of concern for Africans, while recognizing and celebrating efforts that have been made by many African Australians to settle in and contribute in various ways to this society.
