Cultural Diversity in Australia

By Will Weir and Jacob Thomas

Cultural diversity in Australia is shown through governmental commemorative days such as harmony day, awareness walks, and the Oz Asia Festival. For Australia, cultural diversity is becoming a growing part of our community as increased people immigrate from other countries every year. 

UNESCO, or the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation is a specialised agency of the UN aimed at promoting world peace and human rights through international cooperation. UNESCO in Australia have worked to educate the population about human rights through cultural events and heritage listings. Australia is quite a fortunate country in that our racial and ethnic policies were abolished early as compared to the rest of the world and are looking to stay quite progressive in the coming years.
