Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) groups play a crucial role in fostering social connection and cultural inclusion within our society.
“
These groups represent a rich tapestry of backgrounds, languages, and traditions, contributing to the diversity that enriches communities. By embracing and supporting CALD communities, we create spaces where individuals from various backgrounds can come together, fostering a sense of belonging and social connection.
These connections create opportunities for meaningful cross-cultural interactions and friendships. As CALD groups often share their cultural practices, cuisines, and traditions, they enhance cultural understanding and inclusion, promoting a more vibrant and harmonious society.
