Develop the skills and capabilities to source knowledge with, and for, Indigenous communities while appreciating its relationality and interconnectedness, including with Country, beyond a Western framework. Engaging with diverse case studies, you'll examine protocols of knowledge finding and explore the significance of Country in reclaiming, reviving and restoring Indigenous knowledge and cultural and creative practices in Australia.
Learn different approaches to knowledge safe keeping, including via digital means. Discuss issues and protocols surrounding access, responsibilities and gatekeeping, as well as reflect on the role of unconscious bias in cultural management.
Using making as a way of learning and enacting cultural safety, you'll engage in a weaving activity, plus hear stories about how these skills were learned and reawakened. You'll collect and prepare the weaving material, research and engage with Indigenous technologies from Country, and learn weaving techniques to create an object for gathering. You'll follow cultural protocols throughout and reflect on the making practice.
