About Us
Gandhi Creations serves to create strategic long term economic high-impact initiatives that positively benefit the wider society.
Through our suite of annual business and community initiatives, we actively work to service and support Australia’s creative and business sector by
providing sustainable opportunities for First Nations, migrant, refugee, and
cultural and linguistically diverse groups.
​
Key annual projects such as Fabrics of Multicultural Australia and Confluence: Festival of India in Australia, Salvos Multicultural Campaign provide developmental platforms for the creative sector whilst simultaneously delivering a forum for cross-cultural understanding and collaboration.
​
Business platforms such as the India Australia Business & Community Awards (IABCA) and Western Sydney Awards for Business Excellence (WSABE) provide prospective profiling to organisations and entrepreneurs. The IABCA platform also assists in strengthening the bilateral relationship between India and Australia whilst the WSABE Awards celebrates outstanding business leaders and organisations who are actively contributing to the Greater Western Sydney region’s (150 post codes) rapidly developing economy.
Projects such as the New South Wales Council of Social Service’s Investing for Good Conference have enabled us to empower other social enterprises in delivering on their social objectives, whilst working in conjunction with the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan in delivering Zohra Orchestra’s Debut Tour of Australia saw Gandhi Creations offer some of the globe’s most disadvantaged women the opportunity to perform at the Sydney Opera House and assist in driving diplomatic ties between the Afghanistan and Australia.
In 2017 we won the Australian Event Award for Best New Event in South Australia, ACT and Northern Territory. In 2015 we won the Best New Event in NSW for our Corporate Cultural Diversity Programs as well as in 2013 in the Best Community Event Category for the Premier’s Harmony Dinner (The Australian Event Awards is the pinnacle awards program that rewards achievements across all segments of the events industry in Australia).
