Event Information:


For many Indigenous people of Australia, indeed across the globe, Country is and has always been the central knowledge-holder.


For Millennia, direct learning with Country taught people how to live in relational reciprocity, seeding social and ecological harmony and balance. 


This workshop invites you to consider the pedagogic opportunities of reinvigorating a way of knowing, being and doing in the teaching and learning of Environmental Education that honours this old wisdom.
