Locals include staff and students at UTAS, and individuals and families from the wider community who consider themselves local Tasmanians.
You don’t need to have lived in Tassie for generations, just long enough to be able to provide local knowledge and friendship to someone who is new to our community.
Locals may also be groups of people such as sporting or service clubs who would like to offer support to an individual or small group of students by welcoming them into the organisation.
Your interest in participating could be due to wanting to engage in language exchange, learn about other cultures, it could be study related, or just because you remember the feeling of being new and can offer friendship and support.
