HARMONY DAY, 21 March - International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination.
Harmony week provides space for us to celebrate multiculturalism and diversity, you’ll often find many organisations focusing particularly on Harmony Day.
What does Harmony Day mean?
It’s a day for us to come together and celebrate all of our differences and diversity in Australia as well as across the world. Australia has a rich and varied culture, but we can’t ignore the racism and cultural discrimination that is part of our history.
On Harmony Day, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures in particular are a focus point for discussions and celebration.
Harmony Day is a great opportunity to educate others on the value and importance of other cultures such as these. The event as a whole encourages us to continue to build bridges between the many wonderful cultures and ethnicities that make Australia what it is today.
