Fostering Cross‑Cultural Understanding: CCCAV Visit to the Jewish Museum of Australia
CCCAV representatives were honoured to visit the Jewish Museum of Australia on Sunday, 26 April 2026.
We proudly stand in solidarity with the Jewish‑Australian community in opposing antisemitism and all forms of racism, and in fostering cross‑cultural understanding and respect.
Diana shared: “I was honoured to coordinate a CCCAV cultural awareness tour session as part of JCCV’s Educate 10,000 campaign.
The Jewish Museum of Australia truly illuminates Jewish life — sharing stories of settlement, history, faith, culture, memory, resilience, and diverse community voices.
Grateful to the Jewish Community Council of Victoria (JCCV) for its leadership and collaboration with the Museum on this meaningful initiative.
Culture connects us. Education strengthens understanding. Shared humanity brings us closer — helping build a more inclusive, diverse and stronger multicultural Australia.”
Aurora reflected: “I am truly grateful for the opportunity to take part in this group visit at JMA, it is a genuine honour to represent the CCCAV today. My sincere thanks to Yvette for guiding us with care and insight, her thoughtful and engaging approach made the experience both meaningful and memorable.
This visit deepened my understanding of Jewish culture and the history of Jewish community settlement in Australia. What resonated most strongly with me were the shared values that feel both timeless and universal: a deep commitment to family, the importance of passing knowledge and inspiration across generations, and the ability to adapt while holding onto identity.
These reflections stay with us. They remind us that, even across different histories and cultures, there is a common hope—for a future that is not only prosperous, but also fair, compassionate, and enduring.”
