The Victorian Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commission helps people who have been treated unfairly. With this in mind, the Commission has been translating important information into ten languages and simplified English. Now, we are very pleased to share the finished work in a new section on our website.
We’ve seen in 2020 how important it is to communicate with as much of our community as possible, and that means recognising the incredible diversity of language and culture we are fortunate to have here in Victoria.
With this in mind, the Commission has been translating important information into ten languages and simplified English. Now, we are very pleased to share the finished work in a new section on our website: https://humanrights.vic.gov.au/translationshttps://humanrights.vic.gov.au/translations.
This content can be accessed at any time by clicking on the ‘Translations’ button at the top of the website (or under the menu on mobile).
The translated information explains what the Victorian Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commission does, the rights that are protected by law in Victoria, and how the Commission can help. It includes instructions on how to contact the us and, if needed, how to use an interpreter service. We have also added our information in Auslan to this section.
The featured languages are:
- Arabic
- Chinese (simplified and traditional)
- Hindi
- Korean
- Persian
- Punjabi
- Somali
- Urdu
- Vietnamese
- Simplified English
We are grateful to the Department of Premier and Cabinet for the funding to do this work. We hope to add more languages in the future.
