“A Million Stories” is the theme for Refugee Week 2026 (14–20 June), celebrating the one million refugees welcomed to Australia since 1947 and their contribution to the nation’s cultural diversity. To explore these stories, Australia’s Untold Stories: 80 Years of Refugee Resettlement.

Inclusion Together provides practical tools for supporting a child's learning, development and inclusion in an early childhood education and care service. This resource is designed to support the inclusion of children with disability or developmental differences through building an inclusion team that works well together. It may also be useful when adults are responding to other barriers to inclusion that children may experience.

To support your access to information in a variety of ways, short video vignettes have been included that feature different stakeholders. The length of these videos range from 50 second to 4.5 minutes focusing on a variety of topics. You can access these videos using the buttons below organised by topic.
