Refugee Action Collective (Victoria)
Refugee Action Collective (Victoria) or RAC, are a grassroots group of activists concerned with refugee rights operating in Melbourne, Australia.

==History==
RAC was set up in late 2000 by a range of activists in response to the former Howard Government's policies toward the mandatory detention of refugees and the issuing of temporary protection visas which they branded as racist.〔("Mission Statement" ) ''Refugee Action Collective (Victoria)'', 24 December 2000. Accessed: 17 November 2009.〕 RAC activists were involved in breaking out detainees from the Woomera Detention Centre in 2002,〔 protesting outside the Baxter Detention Centre in 2005〔 and protests against the Tampa incident of 2001, where 438 asylum seekers were denied entry into Australia by the government.〔("Refugee rally marks Tampa anniversary" ) ''ABC News'', 29 August 2003. Accessed: 8 May 2010.〕〔("Refugee deaths commemorated" ) ''Green Left Weekly'', 23 October 2002. Accessed: 8 May 2010.〕
