What barriers do CALD individuals face in accessing government services or jobs?

CALD individuals face language barriers, a lack of translated materials, and unfamiliarity with bureaucratic processes when accessing government services or jobs. Discrimination limits employment opportunities and service trust, with reports showing higher job rejection rates for non-English speakers.

How does the digital divide affect older CALD community members?

The digital divide leaves older CALD members unable to use online services for health, banking, or support, worsening isolation and scam risks. They often lack skills or devices, relying on family and missing essential information during digitisation, like COVID.

What role does discrimination play in CALD experiences, and how prevalent is it?

Discrimination fosters distrust and mental health strain in CALD experiences, prevalent in 20-30% of reports per surveys. It manifests in hiring bias and service denial, though exact prevalence varies by community.
