Come and hear The Kanaky Delegation provide first hand information about the situation in Kanaky - often know by it’s colonial name of ‘new caledonia’. More information to come soon. snacks and fundraising table o the night Kanaky, also known by its colonial name New Caledonia, is a group of islands situated to the north-east of so-called Australia. It has been under French occupation since 1853. The French state wants to keep this colony to continue exploiting its natural resources (nickel) and due to its geo-strategic position in the Pacific. In May 2024, the Kanak people began a pro-independance uprising. The revolt was met with extreme violence from the French colonial forces. White settlers organised themselves into militias to 'defend' settler neighbourhoods, harassing, following and shooting at Kanak people in the streets - with very few consequences. There is now a risk of genocide of the Kanak people.
