Harmony Week at WATC

We embraced Harmony Week through a range of activities, encouraging teamwork, innovation and creativity, while providing opportunities for staff to connect.

What is Harmony Week?

Harmony Week is the celebration that recognises our diversity and brings people together from all different backgrounds. It’s about inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for everyone.

At WATC we celebrated these important themes across our organisation in March and April with a range of team-focussed activities.

Importance of Harmony Week at WATC

Over recent years, many new starters have joined WATC, bringing diverse backgrounds and new perspectives to our organisation. Additionally, our corporate structure was revised last year to support the delivery of planned strategic initiatives to meet the financial needs of the Western Australian government sector, both now and into the future.

Given this extended period of organisational renewal and growth, Harmony Week, which is held annually from 17 – 23 March and is part of WATC’s Diversity and Inclusion Plan, is a valuable opportunity to prioritise team-focussed activities. 

This year, WATC approached Harmony Week from a new angle. Throughout March and April, leaders and their teams participated in range of activities tailored to their shared interests. The event was a huge success, encouraging teamwork, innovation and creativity, while providing opportunities for staff to connect and collaborate.
