Diversity Health Institute Clearinghouse - http://www.dhi.gov.au/clearinghouse/African.htm

Recently there has been a significant increase in the number of refugees from Africa settling in Australia. African refugees in Australia come mainly from Burundi, Congo, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Liberia, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Somalia and Sudan. Although there are many common health issues amongst these groups, they are not homogenous. Language, religion, cultural and health practices vary greatly. This section of the DHI Clearinghouse aims to present a range of information about the variety of African communities settling in Australia, and to assist service providers and people from African communities to access culturally appropriate health services and information. [Note - This DHI site provides extensive information and statistics regarding African communities in Australia plus overseas research materials].

The People of Western Australia

An excellent resource for data on each Local Government Area (LGA) regarding CALD religious affiliation, birthplace, language and ancestry groups in Western Australia is The People of Western Australia (2003). This is available on the OMI website (http://www.omi.wa.gov.au/) and can be accessed by clicking the ‘Resources’ tab, then clicking ‘Publications’ in the drop-down box. Although dated, the data still provides a general picture of CALD community demographics. For instance, the table for ‘Languages Spoken at Home by Persons who Speak English Not Well or Not At All’ lists the top 30 of such CALD groups in Western Australia by number and percentage. The 2008 version of The People of Western Australia with statistics from the 2006 census will be available on the OMI website in early July 2008.
