UniSA Events – June 2021

2021 ARA and Hawke Centre Conversation Levelling the Playing Field: The Refugee Reality in Sport Thursday, 24 June 2021 6.00pm to 7.30pm (ACST) Is sport really the great leveller? On the surface the same rules apply to all participants, uniting people from every age, race and cultural background. But sports participation rates for refugee and CALD (Culturally and Linguistically Diverse) groups are significantly lower than the general population. What unwritten rules and unacknowledged barriers do CALD groups face and how can they be overcome? A premier 2021 Refugee Week event, this conversation presented by The Bob Hawke Prime Ministerial Centre and Australian Refugee Association (ARA) will shed light on these important questions. Panellists include: Bruce Djite, Anyier Yuol, Mohamed Toure, Nader Ibrahim and Halima Alizadah. Details here.
