Victoria forming anti-racist pledge
Victoria is working on a state-wide anti-racism strategy.
Victorians are being asked to share their experiences of racism and ideas to tackle it to help shape the state’s new strategy.
Due to launch mid-next year, the anti-racism strategy is intended to create a safer and more inclusive society for Victoria’s First Nations peoples, and multicultural and multifaith communities.
An online survey will help guide the strategy’s development, while the state will also hold targeted consultations with multicultural and multifaith communities, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and organisations, key sector organisations, academics and subject matter experts.
The Government has set up an Anti-Racism Taskforce to lead the development of the strategy, featuring eleven community members with diverse experience and backgrounds.
