Welcome to the
Ethnic Communitiesโ€™
Council of NSW

The Ethnic Communitiesโ€™ Council of NSW (ECCNSW) is the peak body for all culturally and linguistically diverse communities in NSW. Since 1975, we have been proud to advocate for multiculturalism and represent issues of importance to governments and industry.

ECCNSW is committed to the safety and wellbeing of all vulnerable people accessing the organisation.

We support the rights and wellbeing of our Board of Directors, staff and volunteers and encourage their active participation in building and maintaining a secure environment for all participants.
