Chaired by Nick Kaldas APM, the Multicultural NSW Advisory Board provides advice and guidance on a range of matters relating to culturally and linguistically diverse communities.

“We are committed to ensuring the views and concerns of all people across NSW are heard in government decision-making processes. Greater representation means greater diversity and that is what makes NSW such a successful multicultural state,” Mr Kaldas said.

The passion for their communities will be enormously beneficial to ensuring future generations can enjoy the rich social fabric of our great state.”
