Kingborough Multicultural Consultation

This consultation is now closed.

Council is now working towards developing a Multicultural Action Plan.

The results of the consultation can be found here: Multicultural Public Consultation Report

 


The survey was open from 14 September to the 23 October. The results from the survey will inform the development of a Multicultural Action Plan for Kingborough.

Kingborough Council is committed to creating a community that is inclusive, safe, welcoming and respectful for all.

Kingborough has one of the highest multicultural populations, with over 21% of residents born overseas here, compared the rest of Tasmania which has 15% born overseas.

To better understand and address the needs of our multicultural communities, Council has formed a Multicultural Advisory Group with members of the community and Councillors. The Advisory Group is helping Council engage with the Kingborough’s multicultural communities through the survey. The feedback received from this engagement will inform the development of a Multicultural Action Plan to better address the needs of our multicultural communities.
