Celebrating Excellence. Inspiring Communities. Building Cultural Bridges.
The Australia India Multicultural Awards (AIMA) is a premier multicultural
recognition platform established in Australia to celebrate outstanding
individuals, organisations, artists, entrepreneurs, volunteers, and community
leaders who contribute meaningfully to society.
Proudly Based in Melbourne – Expanding Across Australia
AIMA’s flagship events are proudly hosted in Melbourne, one of Australia’s most vibrant multicultural cities.
Melbourne remains the home of AIMA’s major celebrations, award nights, and cultural showcases.
As AIMA grows, we are actively seeking community organisations, event partners, sponsors, and cultural leaders across Australia to help expand AIMA nationally.
Our vision is to create a platform that recognises talent and contribution across arts, leadership, volunteering, innovation, and multicultural excellence—not only in Melbourne, but across every Australian state and territory.
AIMA is growing from a local initiative into a national multicultural movement.
AIMA’s journey began during the global COVID-19 pandemic — a challenging period marked by uncertainty, isolation, and emotional stress for communities worldwide.
In April 2020, Mr. Prabhakar Agraja launched “Covid Geethmala,” an online musical initiative designed to spread positivity, encourage people to stay connected, and provide emotional comfort through music and cultural engagement.
The initiative brought together talented singers, artists, and performers from India and Australia, creating a vibrant online community where people could relax, interact, and support one another through difficult times.
As the initiative gained recognition and community support, it evolved into a broader multicultural platform focused on celebrating talent, unity, leadership, and cultural excellence across Australia.
Australia is one of the world’s most vibrant multicultural nations, filled with talented individuals, artists, entrepreneurs, volunteers, and community leaders making meaningful contributions every day.
Many of these inspiring stories and achievements often remain unnoticed despite their positive impact on society and local communities.
AIMA was created to recognise and celebrate these contributions by providing a professional platform where talent, dedication, leadership, and cultural excellence are acknowledged and shared with wider audiences.
Through awards, cultural events, partnerships, and community initiatives, AIMA aims to inspire future generations while strengthening multicultural unity, creativity, and collaboration across Australia.

AIMA hosts its major annual award celebrations twice each year, typically during:
