"We want to have harmonious and fostering of inclusion among all cultural groups"

Coffs Harbour's multicultural community will celebrate a unique occasion this Saturday. The 2025 International Food and Dance Festival (IFAD) will be organized by the Coast Multicultural Society (CCMS). The 2021 Census found that 15.6% of people in Coffs Harbour were foreign-born. They commemorate events such as Harmony Week and Refugee Day. The event will feature performances by two dancing groups from the Coffs Harbour Yezidi community. Htun Htun Oo, the CCMS president, discusses the occasion with SBS Kurdish.
