My Culture, My Canberra is a celebration of community - where you will hear from Canberrans from all walks of life, coming together to celebrate our differences. This month's speakers are Ericha Smyth (Eky) and Wisnu Trianugeraha (Wes).
Eky is currently studying a Bachelor of International Relations at the Australian National University with a Southeast Asian Studies minor. Since moving to Australia in 2016, Ericha has been involved in various Southeast Asian affairs including PPIA ACT, interning at the Victorian Government Trade and Investment Southeast Asian division, and as a delegate of AIYEP 2021.
Ericha seeks to promote cross-cultural understanding and enhance Southeast Asian literacy in local Australian communities.
Wes is a Master of Public Policy student at the ANU. As an Indonesian, he has spent years volunteering at a youth-led non-government organisation providing the space for young Indonesians and Australians to connect and share their cultures.
