Australia Diversity Resources
You are here
Your unique identity goes where you go - including Australia! Browse a collection of IES Abroad and other website's resources specific to diversity in Australia on topics such as dietary concerns; race, ethnicity, and national identity; gender and sexuality; religion and spirituality; disability and mental health; and more!
Looking for more information on a particular topic? Contact our Diversity Relations Department, and we'll be happy to share additional resources that may not be available online.
Once you are in Australia, your Student Affairs Coordinator will be available to provide additional resources, support, and connections to the local community.
