Introduction
Victoria’s first anti-racism strategy is for all Victorians. This includes people of all ages, abilities, genders, sexualities, faiths and cultural backgrounds.
Our strategy – at a glance
Our vision is for a Victoria free from racism and discrimination, where all Victorians enjoy equal rights, freedoms and protections, and thrive in safe, healthy and supportive communities.
Examining the problem
Racism is always accompanied by power – the power to discriminate against others.
The call to action: tackling racism benefits us all
Tackling racism and leading the way in anti-racism in Australia will strengthen our society and unite our communities.
The plan for action
The plan for action is the blueprint for how we will achieve our vision for a Victoria free from racism and discrimination.
The way forward
We have the vision and the reforms to realise this strategy. We can improve the lives of First Peoples, multicultural and multifaith Victorians and create a safer, more equitable state.
