Cultural and linguistic diversity

Australia is becoming more culturally diverse, with estimates that more than two in five Australians are from culturally diverse backgrounds.

The CPSU is committed to diversity and inclusion in all its forms, including cultural and linguistic diversity (CALD) in our membership, delegate and representative structures.

This includes the union’s commitments to measuring and reporting CALD representation and improving diversity and inclusion in the workplace.

We want to create avenues for members of CALD backgrounds to play a more active representative role in shaping our advocacy on these issues and improving CALD representation in our union.

If you’re interested in having a say or hearing from fellow CALD members please register your interest here.

Multicultural Framework Review

The CPSU wants to hear from members to inform out submission to the Government’s Multicultural Framework Review.

Please complete this survey and tell us about how the APS can better support multicultural Australia and ensure the APS workforce better reflects the cultural and racial diversity of the Australian community.
