In partnership with Yolngu leaders, we specialize in providing practical cross-cultural training for people from mainstream environments, drawing from our experiential understanding of traditional and contemporary Indigenous culture. We provide the knowledge and skills for people to create effective strategies for working with Indigenous communities, and avoid the cultural clashes and staff burn-outs that so often hamper well intentioned programs.
Training, products and services
BRIDGING THE GAP SEMINARS
These are the big daddy of our training experiences, which bring together our wealth of practical experience in working cross-culturally with Indigenous people. Normally held over two days, it gives participants an opportunity to delve deep into the Indigenous culture and mindset, as well as their own.
We hold public seminars, as well as tailored workshops to meet sector-specific demands.
TAILORED TRAINING
Why Warriors offers tailored training workshops to meet your unique workplace needs. These come in all sizes, from a 4-hour cross-cultural communication workshop, to a course held over a number of days exploring a wide range of issues. We also provide specialized consultation in areas relating to Indigenous policy, law, health, business, economics and ethics.
WHY WARRIORS LIE DOWN AND DIE
Now in its ninth reprint, Richard Trudgen’s seminal work is an invaluable training exercise in itself. It takes the reader through many issues and cross-cultural experiences, and is essential reading for anyone interested in Indigenous peoples. It provides hope and new direction for those searching for the answers as to why the “problems” seem to persist in Aboriginal communities, and how we can solve them.
