Auspire presents a highly engaging half-day workshop in Perth, to gain an awareness of Aboriginal culture, history and experiences of Australia's First Peoples.

Delivered by Auspire - Australia Day Council WA and facilitated by First Nations' Noongar leader, Danny Ford OAM, this workshop explores the values and belief systems of Aboriginal people, discusses the impacts of colonisation, and how these still play out today.
