SOLD OUT - True Tracks®: a pathway to Indigenous engagement

True Tracks® is a professional development workshop designed to assist corporate and government agencies with their Indigenous engagement programs, by introducing a solutions driven and holistic approach to managing Indigenous Cultural and Intellectual Property (ICIP).

The True Tracks® method has already been successfully applied to a range of industries and agencies, including; information technology, construction, communication, design, museum & gallery, science, research, arts and education.  At varied levels of federal, state and local government, non-government organisations and ASX listed entities.

Do you need guidance with:

• Dealing with Indigenous cultural heritage material (e.g. visual art, plant knowledge, language), but not sure who to ask or how to do it?
• Commissioning Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander artwork, but want to know the best approach?
• Recording Indigenous knowledge?
• Employing Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander people?
• Engaging Indigenous suppliers?
• Wanting to know how lead agencies and top corporates are managing their Indigenous engagement?
• Realising a calm, holistic and proactive approach to Indigenous issues will be more effective than an urgent, stressed, band aid approach?
