The task force is to provide strategic advice to the Victorian Government on effective approaches to tackling racism in Victoria.
The Victorian Government has committed to develop a new state-wide Anti-Racism Strategy, to proactively prevent and address racism in Victoria. Established in May 2021 and convened by the Minister for Multicultural Affairs and the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, the Anti-Racism Taskforce will provide strategic advice and recommendations to ensure the Strategy sets out a clear and targeted roadmap to reducing racism in Victoria.
Rabbi Gabi Kaltmann told J-Wire: “I am pleased to be appointed as a member of the Victorian anti-racism task force. This important body will be advising the state government on ways to combat racism in Victoria and the members encompass a wide range of community views. I look forward to bringing my expertise both as a community rabbi and qualified social worker to this task force to work on some of the challenges our multicultural state is facing.”
