Welcome to our website!
The Ethnic Communities Council of Queensland (ECCQ) was established in 1976 to represent the interests of the many people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds (CALD) who are part of the broad social community of Queensland, and to promote multiculturalism. It is a not-for-profit, community-based State peak organization. ECCQ contributes to national policy and debate on all matters concerning ethnic communities and multiculturalism through its affiliation with the Canberra-based Federation of Ethnic Communities Councils of Australia (FECCA).ECCQ's Mission is to ensure "that all people from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds have equal access to services and can fully participate in all aspects of a cohesive and harmonious Queensland". ECCQ's activities and services encompass advocacy; community development initiatives; statewide health programs; support groups; cross cultural training; multicultural policy development and research and a resource and reference library.
