UNEEK magazine claims itself to be the first multicultural women's for all Australian women, presenting a range of issues with a refreshingly diverse take. Founder and Managing Director, Shena Pinto, discussed her frustration at arriving in Australia and only seeing a mono cultural representation of women (or celebrities) in magazines. So, she decided to set up UNEEK to showcase the achievements and stories of multicultural communities. I picked up my copy at Readings (Carlton), but you can log onto the UNEEK website to grab a copy near you:
