Register for our upcoming webinar Safe, Respectful, Inclusive: Addressing Racism in Aged Care Workplaces

Mitigating racism in aged care requires a multi-pronged approach combining clear anti-discrimination policies, mandatory cultural safety training, and robust reporting mechanisms to protect both staff and residents.

Join this webinar to:

  • Explore the issue of racism in the aged care workplace in the context of the New Aged Care Act and other legislated obligations placed on providers.
  • Learn strategies for fostering cultural safety and inclusion and how to recognise when racist behaviours are being experienced by aged care workers.

Join us with experts from research; people, culture and diversity practice; and workplace relations.

Hosted by Paul Zanatta, Manager of the Centre for Cultural Diversity in Ageing, the live webinar will also provide participants an opportunity to engage in a Question-and-Answer session with the speakers.

Guest speakers:

Professor Bianca Brijnath: Professor of Health Communication in Society, La Trobe University
Alicia Goddard
