Thank you to everyone who joined us for Grounded - a First Nations designed and led yarning day exploring Designing with Country and Country Centred Design practices.
The conversations and workshops were open, honest and generous, reminding us of the importance of continually listening, learning, and grounding our work, regardless of scale, in place, community and in Country.
