Esther Anatolitis in bid to become Melbourne’s Deputy Lord Mayor

·

Jamal Hakim promises to celebrate the Melbourne’s diversity in his plan for Town Hall, pledging that his party intends to “shape a future that prioritises people, not politics.”

The objective strongly aligns with the values of Greek Australian Esther Anatolitis, who is considered one of Australia’s most influential advocates for and contributors to arts, media and urban planning.

She has aptly joined Team Hakim as its candidate for Deputy Lord Mayor of Melbourne.

“What is the future of postcode 3000 [the Melbourne electorate]? And we’re not just talking about residential in the next chapter – it’s got to be about how can we support artists, creative and community organisations to afford to do their important work within the municipality,” Ms Anatolitis said.

If elected, Ms Anatolitis will make history as the first Greek Australian Deputy Lord Mayor of the largest Hellenic city outside of Greece.
