A Conversation about Multiculturalism

The Project Hope Network is hosting a conversation about multiculturalism on Saturday March 20, in West End, Brisbane. “Clearly we live in a unique time in history. No other age has had to deal with the variety and complexity of issues that come as part of the package of a global village. Considering none of us have ever been here before, this conversation hopes to discuss ideas and share stories of what might be the most healthy way forward.”

What does a healthy/mature society look like?
How can we help health/maturity to flourish here in Australia? In Brisbane?
What is Australia’s role/responsibility in light of the global village?
Exploring a good attitude toward multiculturalism.
Exploring universal common ground.
How do Indigenous cultures fair against a global village backdrop?
What about rules and boundaries?
How do we grow past fundamentalism?
Can we preserve the “Fruit Salad”?

Doug and Zell Sindel, who have lived and worked in Indonesia for 13 years, will be joined by Irene Alexander who is an author and has also done extensive work in Myanmar. There will also be two other speakers (T.B.A.) and a time for open conversation and tea and coffee. Please come and join as we wrestle together with such questions.
