Participants of the Indigenous Mapping Workshop.
Who takes part in the Indigenous Mapping Workshop?
The Indigenous Mapping Workshop is specifically for members of, or people working directly with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities or organisations within Australia.
When accepting applications to attend the workshop, preference is given to those who are working in the field of mapping and are currently facing barriers and difficulties in accessing the specialised technology that they require.
Those who are currently experiencing these challenges and difficulties include, but are not limited to:
Indigenous Ranger Groups
Native Title and Aboriginal Heritage Groups
Arts, Language and Cultural Centres
“There are so many Indigenous community organisations who work in mapping and data collection. Our workshop provides basic training for those who want to empower their communities and be equipped to manage their digital futures”
— Andrew Dowding, Managing Director of Winyama
