https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKhVX1JF2n8
Time 10:35

By turning these models upside down in favour of building authentic relationships and on-the-ground community engagement, Denise Hagan and the Puuya Foundation are empowering a remote Aboriginal community in Cape York, Australia, and delivering successful, life-changing programs. Denise Hagan works at the complicated intersection where the very sincere desire to help remote Indigenous communities held by governments, philanthropists and non-profits alike, clashes with entrenched, misinformed, and Western-centric attitudes to engagement, empowerment, funding, and solutions.

Potential topics we will explore include the role of media and publishing in propagating colonial or race-based thinking in the sector, how hiring and staffing practices may reinforce colonial biases, and how organizations and employees can examine and alter funding and program implementation to ensure the voices of those most impacted by development efforts are better elevated.
