What does Australia's multicultural policy aim to achieve?
- To restrict cultural expressions that differ from mainstream Australian culture
- To encourage all migrants to maintain their original cultures exclusively
- To allow all Australians to express and share their cultural heritage while accepting the responsibilities of being Australian
Why this is the correct answer
Australia's multicultural policy recognises and values the diverse cultural backgrounds of all Australians. It encourages people to maintain their cultural heritage and identity while participating fully in Australian society and accepting its laws and values. Multiculturalism is a formal policy, not merely a social attitude.
