Pasifika Festival 2020 (Virtual)
Event description
The Melbourne Pasifika Festival is an annual celebration of Pasifika culture within Australia. The 2020 Virtual Festival gives us the opportunity to enjoy Pasifika culture through modern and traditional music and dance performances, and share in their stories.
BACKGROUND
The Melbourne Pasifika Festival (MPF) promotes a culture of peace through: fostering dialogue, reconciliation and conflict resolution at all levels, and celebrating and promoting the beauty and uniqueness of each Pasifika culture to provide the wider Australian and Oceania community a window into all things Pasifika through experiencing cultural music, customs, traditions, dance, food and crafts.
By supporting and advocating for the Pacific Island communities living within Australia, WFWP connects with likeminded people who are dedicated to a more harmonious and peaceful world. As Global Partners working to achieve the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the MPF works towards:
- Goal 16: to promote just, peaceful and inclusive societies, and
- Goal 17: Partnerships for the Goal.
With an emphasis on interdependence, mutual prosperity and universal values, WFWP Australia supports Humanitarian Projects within Australia and the Island Nations of the Oceania region. Hence, we are committed to work alongside our Pacific neighbours. https://www.wfwpaustralia.org/pacific-islands-projects
