During 2023 2024, the Association of Hazaras in Victoria (AHV) continued to advance its mission of supporting the Afghan and Hazara community through education, social inclusion, and empowerment initiatives. Our programs focused on practical community capacity building, improving access to learning opportunities, and promoting participation in Australian society. Through the Afghan Women Driving Project, we helped Afghan women gain independence, confidence, and essential life skills by supporting them to obtain their driver s licences. The project provided theory classes, translation assistance, and supervised driving practice in a culturally safe environment. Many participants successfully achieved their learner or probationary licences, significantly improving their mobility, access to employment, and community participation. This initiative directly supported AHV s goal of empowering women and enhancing their social and economic inclusion. We also delivered a range of educational and community engagement programs through Andisha Community Learning Support (CLS), offering language, literacy, and community learning sessions for adults and young people. These activities created pathways for ongoing education and employment, strengthened social connections, and promoted civic engagement among Afghan community members. Overall, our association s work during the year contributed to increased independence, inclusion, and wellbeing in the community fulfilling AHV s commitment to supporting education, equity, and active participation in Victorian society.
