FICQ is the umbrella body for all associations concerned with the Indian diaspora in Queensland. The establishment of the FICQ about 21 years ago signaled a way forward for a powerful and effective voice for all members of the Indian Diaspora in Queensland. FICQ currently consists of 33 Indian organisations and is growing steadily each year.

FICQ plays an important role to facilitate amongst the various Indian organisations to work together as one group on common issues for the benefit of all people of Indian origin in Queensland. Membership of the FICQ is open to all organisations and groups that identify with India origin. In order to seek membership of FICQA, groups and organisations need to be incorporated.
