Each year, Curious About Culture: Community Profile events are organised to foster greater appreciation and understanding of cultural groups within the City of Melton. This session will spotlight the emerging Bhutanese community, providing attendees with an enriching opportunity to learn about their customs, traditions, and aspirations for stronger connections.

The Bhutanese Australian community has experienced significant growth in recent years, with their presence in the City of Melton notable. Despite this growth, the community faces settlement challenges such as limited English proficiency and employment barriers. Representatives from the Bhutanese community will offer insights into their culture, including customs and etiquette, followed by a cultural lunch for attendees.

The Curious About Culture: Community Profile initiative, facilitated by Melton City Council, promotes effective engagement between Council staff, service providers, and community members. This initiative aims to enhance collaborative efforts and interactions by facilitating meaningful exchanges of information.
