Research

Victoria is one of Australia’s most culturally diverse states and our cultural diversity has gained increasing relevance for arts and cultural organisations.

Cultural diversity and Arts for all Victorians is now a widely established and articulated expectation and practice.

Multicultural Arts Victoria (MAV) in partnership with the Victorian Multicultural Commission(VMC) undertook to analyse arts in a multicultural Victoria.

This Needs Analysis report details the research and explores existing barriers that influence thelevel of participation of culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) Victorians in the artistic and cultural life of Victoria.

The report examines how these barriers influence cultural institutions, companies and organisations and makes recommendations in regard to the distributionof resources and the provision of opportunities to CALD Victorians
