Acknowledgement of Country  Experience<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

1.5 hour Workshop, in person<\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

What is an Acknowledgement of Country? How does it differ from a Welcome to Country? Who can deliver these, and when are they needed? What is the cultural significance? How do I engage with this practice in a meaningful and appropriate manner?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve asked any of these questions, this Acknowledgement writing workshop is for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will be guided by Aboriginal educators to develop your own meaningful Acknowledgment and gain knowledge of our reconciliation journey at Curtin, the ancient and colonial history of the campus at Bentley, and Nyungar knowledge and practices from a Whadjuk perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This 1.5 hour workshop is delivered by Aboriginal educators from the Cultural Capability team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
