• Engagement Blackfella Way  - Kurbingui’s Cultural Program facilitates a cultural awareness training seminar named “Engagement Blackfella Way”. This is aimed directly at government services and non-government organizations that deal with Indigenous people and provides engagement strategies for workers to use when supporting Indigenous people. ‘Engagement Blackfella Way’ provides an understanding of how non-Indigenous workers can assist and communicate with Australian Indigenous people. Local Indigenous people from youth to elders have participated in this event to offer not only testimonials for the group but to also engage in the promotion of their culture and break down barriers that hinder them accessing mainstream agencies. For further information phone Tyron Day on (07) 3865 1462 or email on cultural.worker@kurbingui.org.au.
