LIVING IN MULTICULTURAL MULTIFAITH MELBOURNE - YOUTH FORUM

10.30am-12pm Saturday 15th
The Wisdom Hall - BMW Edge, Federation Square

Living in Multicultural Multifaith Melbourne is the third youth forum focused on the sharing and celebration of faith and multiculturalism among the youth of Melbourne. 

Open to the general public, the forum invites the greater community to hear the experiences and insight of our future generation.

The 2010 Forum is presented in three parts: youth speakers from different religious and spiritual backgrounds; a drumming performance by Hung Gar Yau Shu; a special presentation by Western Young People's Independent Network (WYPIN) and group presentations by youths of culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. 

Living in Multicultural Multifaith Melbourne hopes to provide a venue for the young members of our society to discuss issues of faith and cultural identity and to promote understanding and tolerance across Melbourne.
