On 23-28 October, CLAIR Sydney held our annual 2017 Multiculturalism study tour where delegates from Japanese local governments learn more about multicultural policies in Australia and develop future programs in their respective local governments. We have always held this seminar annually in New South Wales but this year we decided to hold it in Victoria for the first time.
This year, the delegation visited and exchanged information and ideas with 10 organisations, including the Victoria State Government, Brimbank City Council, the Metropolitan Fire Brigade and the Monash Asia Institute. It was a great opportunity for the delegates to understand multiculturalism in Australia (specifically as it relates to Victoria). CLAIR Sydney hopes that the delegates will make the most of their learnings in their future activities. CLAIR Sydney would like to express our gratitude to all the organisations that collaborated with us to make this year’s seminar a success.
