2007 Conference, Darwin NT.

CONFERENCE THEME
The 2007 conference theme, Our Cultural Richness – Informing the Future, presented a framework for dialogue and discussion in relation to our work, our clients, our staff, our volunteers, our communities, the church and the general public. The conference provided the opportunity to explore the reality of the Anglicare Australia network operating across a rich tapestry of experience and commitment to care and justice. Part of that richness lies in the diversity of people with whom the member agencies work and for whom they care, and the staff and volunteers who provide or support that care. In brief, the conference presented an opportunity to examine our work and our approaches to inclusiveness and diversity and how this is being shaped by policy and practice.
