The Greek Herald

Multicultural Publication of the Year, sponsored by Village Plaza

The Greek Herald has been a vital voice for Greek and Cypriot Australians since 1926.

As the largest and only daily Greek newspaper outside Greece and Cyprus, it keeps readers connected to their roots.

The Greek Herald’s Publisher Dimitra Skalkos sees the publication’s role as more than just reporting news.

“Multicultural media is also about telling stories in a culturally nuanced way that mainstream media often overlooks,” she explained.

“We try to cover issues that matter to our readers with authenticity and respect.”

The Greek Herald is known for its accuracy and cultural sensitivity. Whether it’s local or international news, the paper ensures these stories reflect the community’s values and experiences.

“We serve as a voice for our community, advocating for issues that impact Greek and Cypriot Australians and helping others understand our culture,” Ms Skalkos said.

“One of our proudest achievements is giving a voice to those who often go unheard.

“Whether it’s our in-depth reporting on social justice issues, or initiatives like The Greek Herald Woman of the Year Awards, which shine a spotlight on ‘unsung heroines,’ we ensure that every story has the power to create awareness and drive change.”

With extensive reach across print and digital, The Greek Herald continues to expand its audience. The publication embraces digital platforms and multimedia content.

“We stay connected with our readers through our website, social media, and by publishing in both Greek and English,” Ms Skalkos shared.

“We strongly believe that multicultural publications will continue to be vital in preserving heritage, informing communities, and bridging cultural divides,” she said.

For its contribution to multicultural media, The Greek Herald was awarded 2025 Multicultural Publication of the Year.
