Everyone belongs! Let's Celebrate Diversity
I believe that we should all follow Australia's example and do all we can to promote this idea, this belief. I found out about this from Bobbie's blog, Almost There, this morning and decided that I would do all that I can.
The Diverse Australia Program is an Australian Government initiative and replaces the previous Living in Harmony Program.
It is about dealing with cultural, racial and religious intolerance. They are doing this by promoting respect, fairness and a sense of belonging for everyone.
They provide information and funding to help ensure all Australians are treated fairly regardless of their background.
Everyone belongs!
March 21st is Harmony Day

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
