Australian Government programs and services need to be accessible to all.
The Multicultural Access and Equity Policy (the policy) ensures Australians of all backgrounds have the opportunity to participate in, and contribute to, our society.
The policy has 6 commitments. These are crucial to the effective delivery of government programs and services.
- Leadership
- Engagement
- Responsiveness
- Performance
- Capability
- Openness
Australian Government departments and agencies are responsible for applying these commitments to their work.
