For this session, we're exploring colonial assumptions in not-for-profits, for-purpose organisations and progressive movements. We welcome First Peoples from various lands along with migrants and settlers to come together, reflect and listen.

We often hear people talking about working in decolonising ways — but what does that mean in practice? How does settler privilege and the assumptions of white Western business concepts shape how our organisations are structured and operate? How might we change that?

The session will be co-facilitated by grassroots activist and storyteller Jill Faulkner and intertwine co-founder Ro Bersten. Jill was born in Aotearoa, and has lived on the lands of the First Nations peoples of Australia longer than she has lived on the country of her grandfather, descendant of the Ngati Te Whiti hapu of the Ati Awa iwi. Ro is an immigrant settler descended from Eastern European Jewish refugees.

We look forward to connecting with you and creating new ways of working.
