Celebrating Harmony Week (18 to 24 March). Everyone Belongs!
Harmony Week is the celebration that recognises our diversity and brings together Australians from all different backgrounds. It’s about inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for everyone.
What is Harmony Week?
- Australia is one of the world's most successful multicultural countries and our cultural diversity is at the heart of who we are.
- Over half of Australians were born overseas or have at least one parent who was born overseas.
- That's why it's so important that we celebrate our country's diversity through Harmony Week.
- Harmony Week is also about inclusiveness, respect and belonging for all Australians, from the Traditional Owners of the land to our most recent arrivals.
- And celebrating that no matter where you come from, we're united by the Australian values of freedom, respect, fairness, democracy and equal opportunity.
