Cultural Diversity Quest

The Cultural Diversity Quest is a key element of Cultural Diversity Week and is designed to help raise young people's awareness of Victoria's cultural and linguistic diversity. The Quest is conducted by the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development and the Victorian Multicultural Commission, and supported by the Immigration Museum, the Modern Language Teachers Association of Victoria (MLTAV), the Catholic Education Commission of Victoria (CECV), and the Association of Independent Schools of Victoria (AISV). The MLTAV sponsors the Cultural Diversity Quest exhibition held at the Immigration Museum.

The Quest is a great way to engage both junior and senior students in shared activities, while promoting messages of acceptance and harmony. Working together on their entries, students not only learn about different cultures and languages they also discover more about each other’s heritage in a positive, inclusive environment.

All Victorian students, teachers and schools are invited to submit an entry about their experience of cultural diversity in one or more of the Award Categories.
