Role of local government in supporting refugees and CALD communities

Muslim Communities

The UTS Centre for Local Government in partnership with the International Centre for Muslim and non-Muslim Understanding at the University of South Australia has released a new report that investigates the activities and programs seven councils have put in place to provide support for newly-arrived refugees.

The report, titled Local Government Services for Refugees Focusing on African Muslim Refugees, examines initiatives that seven Australian local governments are taking to support refugee and CALD communities in settling, employment, education and housing.
