We are excited to announce that we have joined Welcoming Cities, a national network that supports local councils to foster inclusive, connected, and resilient communities.
This milestone reflects our strong commitment to ensuring everyone who lives, works, or visits Charles Sturt feels respected, supported, and truly belongs. Our diverse community is our greatest strength, and joining this network strengthens our focus on celebrating cultural diversity and building meaningful social connections.
Mayor Angela Evans said, “Joining Welcoming Cities is an important step for Charles Sturt. It reinforces our dedication to creating a city where everyone feels included and valued. We are committed to working alongside our community, local groups, and organisations to welcome new arrivals and celebrate the rich cultures that make our city so unique.”
As part of this journey, Charles Sturt will actively participate in Welcoming Week, a global celebration promoting kindness, respect, and unity. Through a range of community events and activities, residents will have opportunities to come together, learn from one another, and celebrate the values that make Charles Sturt a welcoming place for all.
