Environment

Our multicultural communities are not normally targeted as primary audiences for sustainability actions.

Policy Statement: We must recognise the ability of all communities to participate in dialogue and action on the environment, climate change and the positive effects of energy efficiency.

Policy Platform:

• Establish a Multicultural Environment Protection project that utilises and builds on the knowledge and expertise in this area. Such a project will enable diverse communities, who often miss mainstream environmental discussions, to be included in dialogues through cultural and linguistic references.
• Environmental messages will reach all SA communities through the use of communication facilities that address language barriers.
