In April, the Multicultural Communities Council of Illawarra celebrated the launch of the Amplifying M Voices podcasts.

Young people don’t get given a lot of times to share their stories, their lives, their voices. Take that thought and imagine what it’s like being from another country, another language, another culture. This inspired Amplifying M Voices.

This five-part podcast series is a showcase of Illawarra’s courageous and hilarious multicultural young people. They share advice, their experiences growing up and insights into navigating the world. They delve into themes of language, culture, adulthood, self-love and trust.

This project was run by MCCI and was funded through the NSW Government, in collaboration with Beyond Empathy, a not-for-profit, cultural arts for community development company that works with communities and individuals living under pressure to imagine positive futures and develop new responses through the process of creating and sharing art.
