Cultural Diversity Policy

Council is proud to acknowledge the Wurundjeri as the first peoples of our shared land and their rich cultural heritage and deep spiritual connection to this Country for time beyond counting.

To move forward as a healthy and connected community, we first need to look back into the past to understand and respect the history, culture and heritage that informs both who we are and where we have come from.

This Policy acknowledges that the history of Yarra Ranges includes many different cultural groups and that the number of residents from diverse cultural backgrounds continues to grow.
