We are preparing a submission to the Inquiry and want to include views from around Australia, on factors that influence and shape concepts of identity, inclusion and belonging in Australia, with a particular focus on young people.  We are keen to incorporate views from across the sector. 
   

This Inquiry will examine concepts around nationhood, national identity and democracy in contemporary Australia. More information about the Inquiry and the Terms of Reference on the Inquiry website.

This is an important inquiry. MYAN Australia's vision is that all young people from refugee and migrant backgrounds are able to be active participants in, and contributors to, an Australian society in which they feel they belong. This is achieved when we invest in a vibrant, culturally diverse Australia where young people feel safe, included and respected as young Australians.

Discussion questions

This teleconference will explore some key areas of the Inquiry, particularly about the factors that influence and shape notions of identity, inclusion and belonging in Australia. We are also conducting consultations with young people around the country.

We will send an agenda with some discussion questions early next week. 

Your input is really valuable. If you are unable to attend the teleconference but would like to provide input, please contact us at myanprojects@myan.org.au 

We look forward to hearing from you.

With thanks,

Shannon
