Our “Understanding Each Other” two day Bridging the Gap Seminar has been operating nationwide for 15 years. It presents an opportunity to gain breakthrough insights into the original Australian Aboriginal culture and discover real solutions to many of the problems Aboriginal people currently face.

The seminar speaks to both sides of the cultural divide – Aboriginal people and mainstream dominant culture Australians.  Both get answers to “questions that they have carried most of their life”. It uncovers the human elements needed to bridge the gap, building long term cross-cultural relationships in the workplace and the wider community. All will walk away with the tools to create real change. It is presented by dual culture team consisting of 2 Yolŋu leaders Witiyana Marika, founding member of the Yothu Yindi band, Dianne Gondarra and Richard Trudgen.

“We consider the Bridging the Gap seminars an essential part of our training for all of our remote staff and key members of our head office team. Our staff leave the course with greater empathy and a better understanding of how to work with Indigenous Australians”  Michael Nemarich, General Manager, Arnhem Land Progress Association (ALPA)

In the past, a number of Aboriginal cross-cultural workshop leaders have asked us to do a Train the Trainer course for them.  We have now decided to do this course. However, we have lost contact with those interested workshop leaders.   Richard Trudgen will run this course that could range from 2 to 5 days, depending on needs.

If you would like to find out more about our Train The Trainer programme, please contact us.
