Harmony Week is a time to celebrate Australian multiculturalism, and the successful integration of migrants into communities. This week is about inclusiveness, respect and belonging for all Australians, regardless of cultural or linguistic background, united by a set of core Australian values.
“Nearly half (49 per cent) of Australians were born overseas or have at least one parent who was.” (ABS 2016 Census)
Everyone can get involved this March by:
- Communicating the importance of cultural diversity
- Encouraging the values of respect, equality and freedom
- Promoting harmony in the workplace, at home and in schools
