Diversit-e is Australia's first multicultural health e-magazine. Diversit-e provides a forum for discussing and highlighting health matters of interest to Australia's culturally and linguistically diverse community as well as innovative practices, research and services across Australia.
Diversit-e includes both scholarly articles and news articles on the latest programs, initiatives, projects, policy and resources in multicultural health.
Diversit-e is published four times a year and distributed electronically. Subscription is free.
Diversit-e is available from June 2010.
Each issue of Diversit-e will be accompanied by online forums that will explore the issues discussed in the magazine. The forums will give you the opportunity to let us know what you think.
