About the event

Join us in the shop to celebrate the powerful new book from Murdoch Stephens, published by Left of the Equator Press!

Visas Now! zooms in on the high-stakes, one-off intakes of Syrians, Afghans and Ukrainians in the past decade. The book also includes nine people who share how their communities came together to seek emergency refugee intakes, including some whose calls went unanswered. The book is essential reading for anyone interested in solidarity and advocating for humanitarian protection in a time of crisis.

Murdoch Stephens founded the successful Double the Refugee Quota campaign in 2013. Since then he has worked as a researcher and policy expert for universities and not-for-profits. He is an author, publisher and Fulbright Scholar. His previous non-fiction includes the 2018 book Doing Our Bit: the campaign to double the refugee quota.

All welcome!
