Thank you for the presentation. Is there any research on limitations of the desired diversity in an organization? For example, level of education, religion and believes, age? Some social groups may have confrontations and it would cause decrease or even elimination of productivity of the organization.

Very interesting and vibrant presentation thank you. I really enjoyed the historical grounding of interculturalism you gave us, it felt very enriching. The clarification between interculturalism and multiculturalism was also interesting, and I loved the culture mapping app you've developed!

Many thanks for your presentation.
In terms of your findings with this new platform you´ve developed, how do you think the outcomes will be useful, for example, for cultural policy?

It is not so easy for two different cultures melt well with each other. Sometimes a new culture generated from these two is weird and not so-welcomed, we call "unfavorable hybrid" .  For example,  some people try to imitate people from other cultures' wearing and looking; However, what they absorb is just surface not the essence, which make it funny. What do you think of this phenomenon...

Firstly, thank you for your significant presentation, I knew that you have a lot of great experience after your presentation,and you also try to get more people to understand the cultural diversity in society.
However,there are still some limitations around the world,like the culture differences.
So,could you please tell us in your opinion,  how to take actions to reduce the trend of this situation?

Thanks for a great presentation! I'm a fan of your work.

Thanks for your presentation! It's a great idea to visualise the diversified background of the people within an organisation. And I believe such information is important and helpful to promote cultural inclusion and cultivate a sense of belonging within that organisation. I'm interested in whether the Ancestry Atlas project intends to access its impact on the organisations that have requested this service? Like drawing out an annual report to present the level of achievement of this project?

Thank you for the impressive lecture!

How do you think about the influence of social media to the cultural industry

and cultural diversity? is it a efficient platform to advertise different cultural contents?

# data[].attributes.body
Very informative presentation. I gain a better understanding of cultural diversity. I am wondering whether the combination of different cultures is difficult to achieve and whether there are useful methods to achieve this?

# data[].attributes.body
When you set out to learn more about a new culture, what methods do you use? What do you find is the best way to understand other cultures and why?

# data[].attributes.body
Thank you for your presentation! And I love your slogan very much and I totally agree with it. But the question is that I know the intercultural performance will also need localization and adaption. What do you think just bring a total new culture to spectators from another cultural background without adaption? What will this affect local people? Or if we need adaption and localization, what degree do you think would be better?

# data[].attributes.body
Thank you for your amazing presentation! I am wondering that what is the most difficult part when carrying on such multi-cultural events? And what is your motivation at the very beginning?

I'm interested to know what other programs Cultural Infusion runs for representing Australian Indigenous culture across Australia, as well as on an international scale. In producing events, what sort of dialogue and processes do you undertake when communicating with Indigenous communities and elders?

I reckon that cultural diversity and building connections of different cultures can be the key point throughout your presentation as well as your personal experience. Have you ever felt a kind of ritual, religion or culture that you cannot accept/cannot easily integrate with other cultures? And how do you think about the cultural permeation in this global society?

Can multi-culture weaken social cohesion? Do you agree or disagree?

What do you think is the most effective way for local audiences to accept cultural diversity?

You mentioned that culture enterprises will become the most important aspect of the 21st century because of the world stability and peace. However, I think that when the world is not very peace and stable, it may be easier for the artists or scholars to express their ideas freely, so do you think you face many limitations for your work in this age?

# data[].attributes.body
Thank you for your amazing ideas and effort to cultural diversity. As you just said, diversity is the core of cultural policy and this has been long discussed. But sometimes, stereotypes and bias can influence the equality and the sense of belongings of people from diverse backgrounds.  Can you give us some suggestions to us to deal with this kind of misunderstanding and deal with those pre-assumed bias?

Thank you for such an engaging lecture. I have two questions.
What is the consultation process for events being held for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders? What kind of cultural barriers do you encounter in your field of work, especially when consulting First Nations people?

It is quite exciting to see that many of large-scale and diverse cultural organizations and programs set up to enhance the connections among different regions and cultural units, while one issue might be taken into the consideration, there must exists a bunch of organizations whose functions or operation ideas overlapped or even repeated, so what is your opinion about how to deal with the issue of integrating those overmuch resources and practically reduce waste in any perspective?

Thank you for your interesting presentation!  I am interested in the diversity of culture. I want to question that how do you measure the different culture?  What your criterion to measure different culture? Does such  criterion have some limitation? What is the most difficult problem that you ever met when you measured culture?

# data[].attributes.body
How do you combine the cultural events with the local culture? What difficulties do you have

Thanks for the charming presentation.
I just wonder what do you think about what does the cultural diversity specifically influence the economy of a country or a nation, what is the disadvantages of the cultural diversity

# data[].attributes.body
Thank you for your lecture
Well, I notice that you have brought some positive effects to some countries whose economic development is not very good. In some regions in these countries, the quality of people’s life is so low that they spend lots of time working for living, which left little space for arts and culture as well as education. In this kind of area, how do you do your programs to improve interaction and protect culture? Since I think it will be difficult for you to make a difference, I am wondering how you will do.

# data[].attributes.body
How to measure the level of significance of one kind of culture? For example, some culture is developed by hundreds of millions of people, but some culture is only known or promoted by a small number of people. Can we say the former is more important than the latter? Or the latter is more precious than the former? How to keep a relative balance between minority culture and mass culture? Thank you for your engaging presentation!

I understand that your company works closely with corporate clients such as Telstra, Samsung and Jetstar for your events. How exactly do this programmes take place - what do they hope to learn or achieve?

How do you battle with social media influence on culture? You mentioned before how people don't go to Pakistan due to 9/11. With social media's major influences on current affairs, it can affect the countries cultural identity and how people perceive them. Especially with the younger generation, as you stated that the influence of social media is getting worse. How do you change the way our generations perception of certain cultural identities?

Do you use different special ways of storytelling when you promote different cultures? Or in a general way that audiencecan understand easily?

# data[].attributes.body
You have shown us living culture programs in action in Pakistan and Tanzania. How long does a program run? What are your future plans about living culture programs in other countries and why?

# data[].attributes.body
Thank you for bring such multi-cultural and encouraging lecture to us, I'm quite interested in how to be more aware in integrate different cultures properly and creatively? since I realise that the greatness of culture diversity could initially come from a mutual understanding and recognition between different cultures genres, therefore, eliminate the barriers of cultural recognition could be a key step of creating a harmonious cosmopolitism.

# data[].attributes.body
Actually not lots of people have interested with minority culture, especially for some traditional culture from undeveloped area. Could you tell us that how do you bring those culture to the world and attract the audiences? Thanks!

1. How did you decide upon Tanzania and Pakistan as the first two sites to start the Living Cultures program? You mentioned about the diminishing Australian aboriginal languages - did you consider starting the Living Cultures program within Australia as a priority? What were the biggest challenges of this program?

2. There is often a danger of exoticizing a particular culture through kitschy presentation and stereotypical tropes, especially traditional and rural forms, to heighten its appeal to the masses. How do you overcome this?

3. Measuring cultural diversity: while the findings from the index are fun facts to know, I am curious about the actual uses for these findings. How can one apply these findings thoughtfully? How does one attempt to "increase cultural diversity" in one's workplace or a particular community while maintaining a sense of meritocracy?

I was wondering if you had every come across any situations in which there was a real barrier between you and the communities you were immersing yourself in, in terms of values. If so, how might you have navigated

I am happy to explain more about the Living Culture Program in Tanzania... please see me after the lecture. Very briefly.. the participants say that they are benefitting by better physical health to avoid diseases.. reduces stress by keeping busy.. potential to earn an income through performing for tourists.
Some of the problems we have faced is that women are often restricted in their involvment after marriage or when they get a job and are too busy.
The village lacked funds to buy the types of instruments to play certain types of music. The funds provided by the Living Culture program helped with this

How do you understand the popular topic: cultural different ? In my opinion, people should not to appraise the culture which they aren't familiar to, how do you think about this?

Q1. How do you reconcile the relationship between cross-cultural projects and homogenisation?
Are you ever concerned that your influence is having a negative impact on the output created with/by the cultural groups you work with?

I ask this in reference to the projects you run that seem to function to combine a number of cultural activities into large, widely "palatable" events.

*Q2. Why do you use "country of birth" as a framework for measuring diversity rather than race?
Do you think this erases the diversity represented by Indigenous Australians or African Americans, for example?

Thank you for your presentation!

You mentioned how the people of the Pilbara indigenous communities had previously had avoided the beach where a massacre had happened, but your festival event there still managed to attract them through incorporating performances in the local languages. What did you learn from this experience about providing cultural activities for and working with communities living with intergenerational trauma?
