We joined the Welcoming Cities Network in 2024, strengthening our commitment to cultural diversity and inclusion.
Welcoming Cities is a national initiative of Welcoming Australia. It supports local governments to advance communities where everyone can belong and participate in social, cultural, economic and civic life.
Welcoming Cities is part of a growing network of more than 250 municipalities around the world. The network is built around:
Supporting local governments to access evidence-based research, resources, policies and case studies.
Recognising local governments that demonstrate leading practice and innovation in welcoming efforts.
Facilitating and resourcing multi-sector partnerships to maximise learning, reach and impact.
Setting the National Standard for cultural diversity and inclusion policy and practice in local government.
