Uniting, Supporting, Empowering African Communities in Queensland

Queensland African Communities Council (QACC)

Queensland African Communities Council (QACC) is a peak organisation for African communities in Queensland. We are a not-for-profit organisation working towards uniting African communities irrespective of their ethnic, political, religious, national or regional backgrounds.

Representing over 80,000 African individuals and communities throughout Queensland. We are committed to engaging and supporting our community organisations and individual members, so all Africans are able to properly establish their lives here as fully participating members of Australian society.

African Youth Support Council (AYSC)

The AYSC Programs are prefaced on an early intervention strategy, developing, nurturing and focusing on a strong, resilient, and ambitious future for the African community. We work to rebuild communication between young people, parents, schools, and authorities, tackle isolation and systemic disempowerment, and support families through improved parenting and engagement with education and welfare institutions. Through rehabilitation, life skills training, and positive activities — such as fitness, sports, cultural music, workshops, and camps — we foster leadership, trust, and integrity. Our mission is to advocate for and safeguard all young and vulnerable people while instilling values that build a brighter tomorrow.

Africans in Australia

Arrived on Australia’s shores with the first fleet in 1787

African-Australians contribute so much to this great state of Queensland. According to history, people of African descent first arrived on Australia’s shores with the first fleet in 1787. Even before federation in 1901, Africans came as skilled sugar workers who significantly supported Queensland’s sugar industry. Since then African-Australians have continued to make enormous contributions to Queensland in many sectors such as business, sport, politics, medicine, law, engineering, the arts and entertainment. Others are excelling as community leaders among other portfolios in government, non-government organisations and the private sector.
