Two sessions on Communication for Connection - Building Relationship with Mob through Propa Ways of Yarnin' - Hosted by the Institute for Urban Indigenous Health (IUIH):

Mob make up around 3.7% of the total population but make up around 25% of those experiencing homelessness in Brisbane. Due to the high rates of Mob experiencing homelessness, staff in the sector require a greater understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural ways of seeing, knowing, being, doing and belonging. This becomes a professional obligation that our services are culturally responsive and not some protocol we pay lip service to.

This Yarn is to build a greater understanding an awareness of Propa Ways of Yarnin’ in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander context.

Panels and Workshops on
- Addressing Family Homelessness
- Empowering Sustaining Tenancies
- Collaborative Approach to Youth Homelessness
