Federation of Indian Student Associations in Australia information
The Federation of Indian Student Associations (FISA) in Australia was incorporated in 2002 [1] by Gautam Gupta after he was the victim of a drunken assault, which led to depression and his decision to start the federation.[2] Since the Violence against Indians in Australia controversy began, the FISA has had a high profile in many Australian,[3] Indian,[4][5] and other international sources.[2]
FISA's stated purpose is:[6]
Integration: To unify Indian students in Australia and integrate them with the Australian community.
Representation: To partner at all levels of the Australian political and social spectrum to represent the views and opinions of Indian students.
Empowerment: To increase the spiritual, political, social and economic strength of Indian students in Australia.
FISA's aims are;[7]
FISA to be recognised as a point of reference for Indian students nationally.
To construct an effective and long-lasting communication network amongst students who are Indian by pedigree.
The network would consist of all University Unions/Organisations and other like-minded associations, representative bodies and interested individuals.
Organise events to provide a social interaction point for students.
Increase dialogue between other community representative bodies to provide students with a perspective of multicultural Australia.
FISA Executives consist of dynamic Indians and Australians from various cultures whose primary aim is to form a synthesis of multicultural society.
