Chief Executive Officer of Multicultural NSW, Hakan Harman says the level of engagement from sporting codes is testament to a sporting culture that encourages and embraces cultural diversity.
“The high number of entries from sporting organisations this year demonstrates how engaged Australian sporting organisations are in promoting multiculturalism. It’s really encouraging to see an industry that nurtures and encourages positive role models for all Australians grow its ethnic programs year on year.”
