Following recent changes to departmental responsibilities, the functions of the former Department of Treaty, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Partnerships, Communities and the Arts are transitioning to new departments. Work is underway to update departments’ websites.

Strategic settlement partnerships

The Multicultural Affairs Queensland Strategic Settlement Partnerships team advocates for and works to improve workforce outcomes for migrants and refugees in Queensland.

Strategic engagement and advocacy address systemic barriers for culturally and linguistically diverse communities. Through partnerships with the corporate sector, community, and government stakeholders, the team work to improve workforce engagement and facilitate access to opportunities in industries with workforce shortages both at regional and statewide levels.

This work aligns with the Queensland Workforce Strategy.

Cultural acknowledgement

We pay our respects to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ancestors of this land, their spirits and their legacy. The foundations laid by these ancestors—our First Nations peoples—give strength, inspiration and courage to current and future generations towards creating a better Queensland.

Our human rights commitment

We will respect, protect and promote human rights within our decision-making and actions.
