Ways To Welcome was a project run by 
  • Ethnic Communities Services Co-Operative, Sydney
  • Townsville Multicultural Support, and
  • Diversitat, Geelong.
 
The project was created by  a one off grant  funded by the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) to promote the inclusion of people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds with disability in the broader Australian community. 
 
Most of the resources from the project have now been migrated here. Futures Upfront produced all the resources that are on this page and worked with thinkwelldigital on all of the videos.
 
The content is here because it would have otherwise disappeared off the internet from mid 2021 onwards
 
Futures Upfront would like to acknowledge all the contributions made by everyone who was involved. We like to honour your stories and wisdom by making sure these resources continue to be shared.
Stories of ways to welcome

I acknowledge that my work is conducted on the land of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander nations. I pay my respects to Elders past, present and future, for they hold the memories, traditions, Cultures and aspirations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.  Sovereignty was never ceded.
