About this Event

Are you eager to showcase First Nations Australians’ science in your higher‑education curriculum, but worried about getting it wrong?

If so, you’re not alone — and you’re exactly who this workshop is for.

Ask yourself: “Am I ready to do the work?”
The fact that you’re reading this is already a big YES — and we’re here to support you.

Our workshop, based on A Guide for Curriculum Development: First Nations Australians’ Science, offers a welcoming, relaxed, and genuinely safe environment where you can explore the guide, ask questions, and build confidence. We created this resource for educators just like you— people who want to do the right thing, want to learn, and want to contribute to culturally respectful, meaningful curriculum change.

Join us to get started, feel supported, and take your next steps with clarity and community.

We gratefully acknowledge and thank our First Nations collaborators and advisory team for their knowledge, guidance, and ongoing partnership.
