The federal government has announced funding for two initiatives aimed at promoting diversity.

Two-time AFL premiership player Bachar Houli’s goal to encourage Islamic youth leaders has earned an $850,000 federal grant for a new home.

The devout Muslim and Richmond defender will lead youth programs at the Australian Islamic Centre’s new interfaith centre.
