CULTURAL AWARENESS
‘Living in Harmony’The ‘Living in Harmony’ project was funded by the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC). The project, developed in 2008, brought together 4 schools , 2 with a monoculture population and 2 with a higher level of students from a refugee background. Through dialogue and shared activities the program helped to break down barriers and increased understanding between both groups.On Harmony Day the students met each other, played games, watched a performance and ate Afghan and Sudanese food. The Lieutenant-Governor and the Minister Assisting the Minister for Multicultural Affairs launched the project.Cultural Competency WorkshopsARA provides Cultural Competency Training Sessions to services and organisations.
