The Multicultural Framework Review, published by the Australian Government, evaluates multiculturalism and offers suggestions. $100 million will be used to fund intercultural programs.
The Multicultural Framework Review study, the first significant analysis of Australian multiculturalism in a generation, is being released with pleasure by the Australian Government.
This extensive impartial report was released with the goal of strengthening Australia’s multicultural society for coming generations. It evaluates the state of the society.
The last significant assessment of diversity in Australia took place almost 50 years ago. Since then, Australia has developed into a country that welcomes citizens from almost every nation on the planet, with over half of its inhabitants being foreign-born or descended from at least one abroad parent.
Three distinguished Australians travelled the nation to gather information for the report, consulting with more than 1,430 people and 750 organizations—including community groups—at more than 200 events. 796 textual, audio, or video submissions in a variety of community languages were received by the review. It is noteworthy that 126 applications were made in languages other than English, demonstrating a fresh and creative method of receiving submissions.
The Home Affairs website provides the executive summary in 33 languages, so everyone can access it regardless of their level of English proficiency.
In addition to publishing the Review and the Government Response, the Australian government has pledged to invest more than $100 million in fostering a more diverse Australia. With this support, multicultural groups will be able to improve amenities and develop their capacity to serve the community’s needs as well as those of the larger society. Additionally, language services and community participation will be improved.
For many years to come, the Multicultural Framework Review will influence how multiculturalism is understood in Australia and how future policy is developed.
The constant efforts required to guarantee that all communities, regardless of their religious, ethnic, or cultural heritage, feel safe and proud of who they are were underscored by the Minister for Immigration, Citizenship, and Multicultural Affairs.
The Review, which promotes common principles of respect, unity, and compassion to lead the country towards peace and understanding, is considered as a new chapter in Australia’s multicultural story. Australia’s diversity is cited as its greatest asset, and the assessment presents a multicultural future unified and successful.
