Burwood Council welcomes people of all races, nationalities and cultures and strives to ensure that all people feel safe and at home in the Burwood Local Government Area. Council strongly condemns racism, discrimination, prejudice, bullying, and any action that infringes upon the human rights and dignity of an individual or group.

Council encourages the media and community members, both within Burwood and the wider Australian community, to stand up to racism, racial vilification and stereotyping, and to report any discrimination through the appropriate channels.

Burwood’s cultural diversity is a key strength of the local community. Burwood Council is committed to celebrating our multicultural heritage and promoting community harmony, which are the building blocks of a progressive and flourishing society.
