About this Event

Join Us for Torres Straits - The Missing Piece of the Cultural Capability Puzzle!

Join us for an engaging and practical half-day workshop designed for APS and private sector professionals working across policy, programs, service delivery, HR, community consultation, leadership and related business areas.

Torres Strait Islander cultural knowledge is a vital part of Australia’s cultural capability landscape, yet it remains underrepresented in many workplace learning environments. While many professionals recognise the importance of cultural capability, there are often gaps in understanding when it comes to Torres Strait Islander histories, cultures and perspectives.

This workshop is designed to help bridge that gap.

Why attend?
Delivered in a practical, relatable and experience-based format, this session will support you to:

  • Build confidence in engaging with Torres Strait Islander perspectives
  • Deepen your understanding of cultural context and lived experience
  • Strengthen your ability to work respectfully and effectively with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples
  • Apply insights in ways that enhance your day-to-day work and decision-making

National Reconciliation Week focus
As part of National Reconciliation Week, this workshop highlights the critical role that individual and organisational capability plays in progressing reconciliation. It provides a focused opportunity for APS and private sector participants to strengthen the knowledge, skills and confidence needed to contribute to reconciliation in practical and meaningful ways.

By improving cultural capability, participants are better equipped to support respectful relationships, informed policy and program design, and more effective engagement with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.

Who should attend?
This workshop is suitable for APS and private sector staff at all levels who are seeking to strengthen their cultural capability and apply it more effectively in their roles.

Call to Action
Places are limited to maintain a high-quality, interactive experience. Secure your spot and be part of building stronger cultural capability that supports meaningful reconciliation outcomes.
