Care is at the heart of everything we do. It is the nurturing, teaching, protecting, and safeguarding of family, community and Country that keeps life turning. When we recognise, value and respond to the often invisible and unremunerated care work performed by Indigenous women, we act to address the colonial structures that create harm, disadvantage and inequality.

We invite you to this special event to launch the newly published ‘Caring about Care’ report, authored by Elise Klein, Janet Hunt, Zoe Stains, Chay Brown, Kayla Glynn-Braun, and Mandy Yap. Join Honorary Professor June Oscar AO, Chair of the Wiyi Yani U Thangani Institute for First Nations gender justice, as well as the researchers and women involved in the research to hear about this important exploration into care work.

This event is taking place in a collaboration between the Wiyi Yani U Thangani Institute for First Nations Gender Justice, The Australian National University and the University of Queensland on Ngunnawal and Ngambri Country.

Interpreting services will be available in person and online.
