    Social Inclusion

    The Australian Government’s vision of a socially inclusive society is one in which all Australians feel valued and have the opportunity to participate fully in the life of our society.

    Achieving this vision means that all Australians will have the resources, opportunities and capability to:

    • Learn by participating in education and training
    • Work by participating in employment, in voluntary work and in family and caring
    • Engage by connecting with people and using their local community’s resources and
    • Have a voice so that they can influence decisions that affect them.
