Our We Belong program is calling for community members from diverse backgrounds to come together to strengthen cross-cultural connection and belonging on the Northern Beaches.

Four intercultural community initiatives and events are being planned for Harmony Week in March 2025. They will bring together different cultures, increase awareness and knowledge of community experiences, and enhance social and cultural inclusion on the Northern Beaches.

There are 2 expressions of interest for those who would like to participate in a variety of ways. Apply before Sunday 12 January 2025.

Join us and:

  • be part of a groundbreaking project to foster intercultural dialogue and belonging
  • share your story of belonging
  • celebrate diversity and inspire others with your story or work
  • increase visibility of diverse cultures within the Northern Beaches community.

Together, let’s create a community where every story matters and every culture shines.

Make your voice heard — because we all belong!
