Cr Dai Le
Councillor, Fairfield Council and Advisory Board
Member, Multicultural NSW
Twitter: @dai_le
Being a champion for diversity and inclusion isn’t an easy path to follow. For Dai
Le, her life’s journey has created this path; she is the embodiment of diversity
and inclusion.
Dai is on a mission is to help build an inclusive society where mainstream
institutions and organisations genuinely reflect the diverse community we live in.
Dai Le founded DAWN, a platform that gives voice to diverse and inclusive talent
who are shaping today’s society. Through DAWN, Dai Le has created a voice
where she speaks, consults, and helps organisations understand the economic
and social benefits of leveraging diversity and inclusion as part of their business
development, market innovation and corporate responsibility.
“When corporations understand that cultures and people can be different but it
is all about understanding, accepting and finding the true value of how the
differences work together. Sometimes, in our difference we are the same and
we need to find that to really reach our true potential in the workforce.” Says Dai.
Prior to establishing DAWN, Dai Le was an award-winning journalist, film-maker
and broadcaster with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), Dai Le was
named one of AFR-Westpac's Top 100 Influential Women in Australia in 2014.
Born in Saigon, Vietnam, Dai Le spent many years in refugee camps in South
East Asia before being accepted for resettlement in Australia. Her childhood
experiences and growing up with a dual identity – being a Vietnamese in Australia
and western cultural surroundings, helped to shape her perception of life. It has
also made her a passionate advocate for refugees and migrant communities.
Together with her diverse and highly experienced team at DAWN they create
online content, network, and thought-leadership discussions with a genuine lens
on inclusion and diversity.
With over 20 years of change making experience, Dai is a strong believer in the
use of storytelling to inspire, educate and inform. She currently serves as an
Advisory Board Member to Multicultural NSW, a Government statutory body;
she’s an Ambassador for Fairfield Relay for Life, and NSW Cancer Council
Greater Western Sydney. Dai is also a breast cancer survivor.
