Language plays a core role in people’s ability to participate in society, yet the role of language in fostering social inclusion is often overlooked in social policy. This panel explores some of the more pernicious ways that linguistic discrimination and the ‘monolingual mindset’ contribute to social exclusion in Australia, and what needs to change to develop policies and institutions that better respond to the multilingual reality of contemporary Australia.
