For the first time in 26 years, a sitting Australian Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, addressed FECCA.<\/p>\n<p>Our Chair attended the conference, where Dr Shawn Michael O\u2019Donnell presented their co-authored research, Beyond Cultural Difference: Poverty, Trust and Belonging Across Marginalised Communities in Four Countries.<\/p>\n<p>We came away with plenty to think about.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Why are migrants blamed for Australia\u2019s problems while their contributions and qualifications are so often overlooked?<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Why do we focus on attracting migrants to regional Australia without doing enough to make them want to stay?<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; How do we better protect migrant women facing family violence, language barriers and isolation?<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; How do we ensure that children learning English don\u2019t fall behind at school?<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; And importantly, how do we build a multicultural Australia that genuinely acknowledges and respects First Nations peoples?<\/p>\n<p>These are not just conference discussions. They are issues we encounter through our community work, including our \u201cWe Listen and We Don\u2019t Judge\u201d program.<\/p>\n<p>We returned to South Australia with new connections, ideas and an even stronger determination to make our communities more welcoming, safe and inclusive.<\/p>\n<p>Because belonging is about much more than celebrating different cultures. It\u2019s about how we treat one another. \u2764\ufe0f<\/p>\n<p>#FECCA2026 #PrimaNota #MulticulturalAustralia<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/reel\/2572410049851028\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#4267B2;color:white;padding:8px 14px;border-radius:6px;text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold\">\u0427\u0438\u0442\u0430\u0439\u0442\u0435 \u043d\u0430 Facebook<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83c\udde6\ud83c\uddfa WE\u2019RE BACK FROM CANBERRA!
