Second National Settlement Conference 2012
"Creating Our Future"
Thursday 28th -Friday 29th June 2012
(with Community Forums on Wednesday 27th June)
Adelaide Festival Centre, King William Road Adelaide South Australia
The Second National Settlement Conference ‘Creating our Future’ will bring together the settlement sector, communities, service groups, academics and other interested organisations and individuals to build on current settlement knowledge, practice and community participation within a multicultural society. It will provide a forum for sharing current
thinking, research, good practice and engagement pilots, both within the settlement sector and with other diverse stakeholders.
The conference will attract key innovators with an interest in how settlement can contribute to developing a productive multicultural future for Australia. These innovators will include local and international academics and cultural thinkers, seasoned and early career researchers, experienced and emerging settlement practitioners modelling best practice, government and non-government planners, business and employment industry groups, and intergenerational communities—new and established, rural and metropolitan.
The program will include presentations by key speakers from a diversity of disciplines, forum discussions and themed
interactive sessions. The program will showcase best practice and will include artistic performances, exhibitions, displays
of literature and resources from participating groups, and launches of new initiatives.
Pre- and post-conference events and allied activities will include:
• Conference reception on Wednesday 27 June
• Conference Dinner on the evening of Thursday 28 June
• Community pre- and post-conference workshops
• Cultural tours scheduled for Saturday 30 June to the Wali-e-asr Centre, the Migration Museum, the African Community Centre, and the Tandanya National Aboriginal Cultural Institute
The full conference program can be downloaded from here!
