Multicultural New Zealand: A 25-Year Journey
Author(s): Jumoke Giwa (ed.)
Multicultural New Zealand was formed in 1989 as a co-ordinating body for the regional multicultural councils being formed in different parts of New Zealand. Its aim is to serve as a national pan-ethnic advocacy group, and twenty-five years on it has become the umbrella organisation for ethnic migrant and refugee communities, promoting opportunities for equal participation in New Zealand society. Multicultural New Zealand has 19 regional councils and four national councils for business, seniors, women and youth.
