DIVERSITAT celebrated its program\u2019s achievements over the past 12 months during their annual general meeting on November 15.<\/p>\n

Chief executive officer Michael Martinez said the night showcased the organisation\u2019s core values of promoting access and equity.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it was a reflection of what Diversitat is all about which is our ethnic communities, our staff and our volunteers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have really delivered and had quite a bit of success with our settlement programs, our aged support, training, 94.7 The Pulse and Pako Festa.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think all of our programs are doing well and I think some of the individual stories we heard last night about individual circumstances is where it really comes home.\u201d<\/p>\n

Guest speaker Mark Edwards from Wathaurong Glass discussed the important relationship between Diversitat and the Wathaurong community, a theme of the evening with 2019 \u2018The International Year of Indigenous Languages\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s important that he came along, we think that\u2019s very important, the relationship we have with our indigenous brothers and sisters, the Wathaurong,\u201d Mr Martinez said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s critical to our future that we listen to the voices of indigenous people.\u201d<\/p>\n

The night also acknowledged the efforts of Diversitat\u2019s volunteers and staff, with several awards recognising outstanding contribution by volunteers, outstanding achievement and positive achievement for students and Employee of the Year and also anniversary awards for Diversitat staff.<\/p>\n
