2025 National Aboriginal Wellbeing Conference 

Yarning 'round the Campfire

Event Details 

DATE: September 15th & 16th ~ LOCATION: Rydges Newcastle ~ COST: $650

The aim of our conference is to foster greater self-awareness and empathy, allowing for services that are not only more respectful but also more effective in meeting the unique needs of Aboriginal clients.

Taking the time to understand the whole story is foundational in working effectively and respectfully with Aboriginal peoples, families, and communities. This approach promotes deep listening, patience, and empathy, which are essential for building trust.

By unpacking these “yarns”, service providers can better learn the full context of an individual’s or community’s experiences, and become better equipped to deliver services that align with the cultural, historical, and social realities of Aboriginal communities.

For many Aboriginal communities, histories of trauma and resilience are often central to their "whole story." Acknowledging and understanding these stories can dismantle preconceived notions and biases, leading to a more informed and respectful approach.

This learning process also enables service providers to expand their skills and knowledge, which ultimately leads to better support systems for the communities they serve.  By developing this understanding helps ensure that services are delivered in a way that is genuinely supportive, culturally aware, and impactful, fostering stronger, more positive relationships over time.
