CALD

Orygen has created a collection of resources about cultural diversity and mental wellbeing. The resources were developed to support the knowledge and skills of the youth mental health workforce, to work safely and inclusively with multicultural young people. 

Mental Health Australia commissioned research to investigate the mental health of three specific culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic. These were the Italian, Turkish and Vietnamese communities. We are delighted to present the Final Report detailing the research findings and recommendations.  This research was conducted by Whereto, commissioned by Mental Health Australia and funded by the National Mental Health Commission.
