Social Inclusion Week aims to help all Australians feel included and valued, giving everyone the opportunity to participate fully in society. Social Inclusion Week is about connecting local communities, workmates, family and friends, in order to build and strengthen relationships or networks and address isolation and exclusion.
To celebrate Social Inclusion Week 2020, here at Camden Council, we're holding a competition! For your chance to win 1 of 5 $100 vouchers, simply click this link and fill out the form, and then submit a photo with a message about what social inclusion means to you. You can also share it on social media using #socialinclusionweek!
Entries open on 23 November and close on 29 November.
Social inclusion can be learnt at any age, starting young is a perfect time to learn that everyone has a place in our community. To start a conversation about social inclusivity and how to bring it up in a kid friendly way, check out the reading list from Camden’s Paint the Town REaD committee.
