MAKING Integration work
The Harvard Club of Victoria cordially invites you to a lunch presentation on Friday the 8th of June featuring the Hon Alan Tudge MP, Minister for Citizenship and Multicultural Affairs.
We are all beneficiaries of the significant contribution of successive waves of migrants. It has built modern Australia. Our multicultural achievement is different to multiculturalism in other nations, our success has been based largely in integration. In Alan's view, to ensure this ongoing success, we need to increase our efforts and place high expectations upon new arrivals, emphasising the fact that with rights comes responsibilities.
