CULTURAL AWARENESS TRAINING

Our Cultural Awareness program has been developed to strengthen an organisation’s and individual staff's cultural capability. Designed to be informative, educational and to create a deeper understanding and connection to Aboriginal Cultural Heritage here in Australia.

Our program unpacks some of the behaviours, attitudes, policies and systems that have been impacting Aboriginal people in Australia over the past 250 years. Using a strengths-based approach we build on our client's existing knowledge and awareness around these issues and provide an opportunity to develop their understanding and appreciation of Aboriginal culture in Australia.

Increase your organisations and staff's capability to connect with Aboriginal communities.
Provide your organisation and staff with the skills to build lasting relationships with Aboriginal team members and customers.
Improve culturally appropriate and respectful communication skills throughout your organisation.
