The Australian Unemployed Workers’ Union (AUWU) is a registered charity run by the unemployed, for the unemployed, as an independent volunteer organisation.

The objective of the AUWU is to protect the rights and dignity of unemployed people and to alleviate poverty and disadvantage. This is achieved through our core purposes to

1. Help people with self-advocacy via the provision of free information resources and our national advocacy hotline

2. Engage in systemic advocacy and campaigns for improved welfare rights and conditions

3. Facilitate the collective action of our members to advance and protect their rights and dignity
