Abstract
The cultural benefits of developing South Australia’s multicultural resources may be summarised as enrichment – enrichment of the soul, the mind and the consciousness. This results in the development of a nation that is characterised by its openness, its vitality and its dynamism. Importantly, a diversity of cultural inputs contributes to the development of a society of a distinctive character, thereby enabling Australia to project itself to the world community as a powerful cultural entity in its own right and not merely a derivative, colonial one.
