"This report is concerned with discrimination affecting people from migrant and refugee backgrounds. However, VicHealth is committed to addressing discrimination of concern to other groups and has a formal program to address discrimination in partnership with Victorian Indigenous communities. Many of the lessons learned in this report are transferable to addressing discrimination affecting other groups."--P.5.
