13.02.2022 It’s been a struggle to get together in these times as young people to ‘create’ and be ‘seen’. But today was a GREAT day! Duniya Behter Project saw our amazingly creative young people come together with @Mimi Leung, Jon YungKily and Ree Peric to enable these talented minds with their passions be seen in full colour at Point of Difference Studio! We can’t wait for the world to see and hear what these beautiful minds and talents have to share! ... Watch this space!

19.01.2022 This Samoan proverb speaks volumes to the point of difference of what community can do when they source their solutions from within! Know Your Roots Inc and Charis Mentoring Inc. are making moves with our local Pasifika youth! Be ready to HEAR their voices because they are ready to SPEAK! #collaborations #unlockingthevoiceofyouth #youthofcolourandculture #charismentoring #knowyourroots #evenduringCOVID #together #wecan #survive #THRIVE

18.01.2022 The KYR/POD family would firstly like to acknowledge Yorta Yorta and Bangerang Nations for allowing us to write our stories on their land, as they are the custodians of the land on which we live on. We would like to acknowledge and show our respect to their elders past, present and emerging. We also would like to wish all of our Muslim communities a blessed Ramadan. Ramadan is considered one of the holiest months of the year for Muslims. In Ramadan, Muslims commemorate the ...revelation of the Qur’an, and fast from food and drink during the sunlit hours as a means of drawing closer to God and cultivating self-control, gratitude, and compassion for those less fortunate. Ramadan is a month of intense spiritual rejuvenation with a heightened focus on devotion, during which Muslims spend extra time reading the Qur’an and performing special prayers. Those unable to fast, such as pregnant or nursing women, the sick, or elderly people and children, are exempt from fasting. This is a great opportunity to practice inclusion within workplaces and educational institutions by allowing prayer times to be extended, being mindful that fasting can cause fatigue and offer resting spaces. This is also a great opportunity to celebrate diversity by inviting or attending dinners to break fast with your colleagues and friends.

16.01.2022 Hi all! It’s been a while. Just wanted to take a brief moment to acknowledge our KYR board member and the $$$ boss. When Ofeira Simaika Satele is not looking glam for the red carpet, she can be found having heart palpitations at the POD STUDIO after her financial briefings. Always calling in at 5pm to remind us to go home, oiii don’t stay to late and save the power bill. Thank you $$$ boss

14.01.2022 Our purpose at Point of Difference (POD) Studio is to serve the community to the best of our ability. We endeavour to create culturally safe, respectful and accessible environments in rural regions of Victoria through education, research and consultation. POD is committed to promoting the importance of defining one’s identity, cultural intelligence and belonging.... Our vision is to eliminate the point of difference that makes our society an inequitable place to live in. Get to know us over at www.pointofdifference.org.au and learn more about how we can be of service. Original art Christiano Dery Theodorus See more

14.01.2022 The Pasifika Youth in the GV are SPEAKING UP! Their point of difference is that they are telling their truths and whilst speaking - showing us their solutions to the issues that effect them daily and their community! This is part 2 of 1 of 3 campaigns that were launched by them this pass weekend. Visit Know Your Roots to see all campaigns and HEAR and SEE their voices!... POD Studio couldn’t be more proud of these young people of colour and their talents and passion to no longer be silenced by fear - step up and be that point of difference - even more so in these unprecedented times! Mad and respect! A massive shout to Charis Mentoring Inc. and @Know Your Roots Inc. on this collaboration! Keep watching these spaces because they tell us there is more to come! #collaborations #igniteyourpolydream #youngpeopleofcolourandculture #hearouryoung #pasifikalead #knowyourroots #WeGotYou #weseeyou #inourcommunities #WeHearYou #charismentoring #pasifikamopasifika #hopeful #pointofdifference

12.01.2022 We missed this when it first came out , Point of Difference Studio has been fortunate to host Shepparton Culture Kitchen a collaborative project between Multicultural Arts Victoria, @Greater Shepparton City Council and Primary Care Connect! At the end of last month, eight beautiful women of colour came together to discuss their love for food and begin their journey on sharing their stories through food. Thank you to MAV for giving us the opportunity to host this project and we cannot wait to see what they come up with in the next couple of months! #sheppartonculturekitchen #storytellingthroughfood #womenofcolourandculture #fromrootstoplate #opportunities #creativeminds #arts #culture #pointofdifference

09.01.2022 Community working for community is an endless commitment. We couldn’t get home for Iftar tonight so home came us. Home is filled with chosen family, laughter, hardship, sacrifice and unconditional love. Home is where ever we are. Our families make sacrifices to allow us to keep doing what we’re doing. We appreciate and thank them and without them we wouldn’t have the motivation. ... #ramadan2021 #chosenfamily #family #breakingfast #multiculturalism #pointofdifferencestudio
