We had:

Professor Tom Calma, Chancellor of the University of Canberra, talking about Australian kids want to learn First Nations words more than other, foreign languages. A new poll of primary school students has revealed that children would rather learn a local First Nations language than the commonly-taught Japanese, Mandarin, French, Italian, German and Indonesian.

Kado Muir, National Native Title Council Chairman talking about Co-Design is more than just consultation. With a purpose to generate a meaningful and collaborative dialogue on Co-Design, Traditional Owners from across WA met with government, industry and investor representatives, to discuss how the principles of co-design should inform the implementation of the WA Government’s Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2021.
