01.01.2022 The Cultural Atlas is a free online resource that provides comprehensive information on the cultural backgrounds of Australia’s biggest migrant populations. The material is purposed to give readers an understanding of the dominant culture within a country so that they may gain insight into the kind of cultural and social environment a first-generation migrant from that nation is likely to be familiar with. This content includes explanations of common cultural attitudes, pra...ctices, norms, behaviours, social structures, etiquettes and communication styles. It is contextualised with up-to-date statistics about Australia’s migrant populations and information on their trends of arrival and settlement. Another useful online resource to complement your family history research? #familyhistory #multiculturalaustralia #kiamafamilyhistorycentre
