Synopsis:

QPAC in partnership with Multicultural Australia is excited to be hosting Who Are We? - Identity in a Multicultural Australia, facilitated by Benjamin Law and featuring a diverse panel including academics and leaders from across corporate, community and arts fields in Australia. 

What does it mean to be Australian today? How do we come to terms with an ever-changing idea of what it means to be 'Australian' that is moving away from the traditional sterotypes of a Euro-centric, monoligual population to a much more diverse face of Australia?

Don't miss this conversation without panel about our national identity as we explore the reality of our present-day cultural diversity and unravel ideas of belonging, heritage and collective identity.
