SUMMARY:Indigenous Food and Agriculture
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special webinar on Indigenous agriculture\, where we’ll yarn about native foods and Indigenous farmers — everything from practising agriculture as a traditional custodian\, growing bush foods and making sure they’re safe to eat\, preparing amazing meals and getting Australian native foods to market! \nAbout the Speakers\nUncle Dave Wandin is a member of the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung Aboriginal Corporation and chairperson on the board for the Wandoon Estate Aboriginal Corporation\, which represents the Wurundjeri people\, the Aboriginal owners of the historical property “Coranderrk” in the Yarra Valley. Coranderrk was set up as an Aboriginal Reserve in 1863 and was led by William Barak (who Wandin is a descendant of). The community had to fight hard to keep their land and community thriving\, but in 1924 the property was forced to close\, and in 1999\, the Indigenous Land Corporation purchased 80 hectares of the property and gave ownership to the Wandoon Estate (Barak’s descendants). Coranderrk now operates as a farm for native bush foods and is set to open up as a training space and commercial kitchen. \nLuke Williams is a proud Gumbaynggirr descendent who grew up in rural NSW. Luke is currently completing his PhD in the School of Health and Biomedical Sciences at RMIT University. In collaboration with the national food regulatory body\, Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ)\, and working alongside Aboriginal businesses and organisations\, his research provides insight into how newly formed regulatory frameworks for assessing the dietary safety of traditional food items can better consider the unique history\, knowledge and culture held by First Nations people. \nKerrie Saunders is a Kamillaroi/Gomeroi woman from the northwest of NSW. What started out as a hobby for gardening and bush walks has turned into a passion for highlighting bush tucker in the local and surrounding areas of Moree. Kerrie now conducts regular bush tucker tours through her business\, Yinarr-ma\, where she identifies bush tucker and cooks yummy meals for guests. \nKerrie also works with the University of Sydney on the Indigenous Grasslands for Grain project in Narrabri\, making flour and bread with native grains. \n@gilbertjoshuam\nJoshua Gilbert is a Worimi man\, farmer and academic\, who shares the narration of Indigenous identity through agricultural truths in light of modern contexts. \nHe is undertaking higher degree research at Charles Sturt University\, is the Indigenous Co-Chair of Reconciliation NSW and was recently recognised within the world’s top 50 young gastronomers. \n  \n  \n@karlie_moon_\nA joint presentation by the ACT National Science Week Coordinating Committee and the Royal Society of Victoria.\nOur MC: Gamilaraay astrophysicist Karlie Noon is passionate about Indigenous astronomical knowledge and was the first Indigenous woman to obtain a double degree in science and mathematics. Karlie recently commenced a PhD in astronomy at the Australian National University and is Sydney Observatory’s first Astronomy Ambassador. \n  \n  \nRegistration is available below to participate in the webinar via Zoom and/or Eventbrite.  Alternatively\, you can watch along via Facebook Live at the appointed time without needing to register. \n

SUMMARY:Eco-Dyeing 101 Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join the Alphington Community Centre in Science Week for a fabulous family workshop and learn how to use the plants in our neighbourhood to dye materials. \nLocal textile artist Rose Kulak will be teaching this workshop in our garden and out in The Shed. She’ll explain all the technical things\, and then you’ll have a chance to have a go with a variety of plants and mediums. We’ll also share lunch and take a walk around the neighbourhood and into Darebin Parklands to explore plants that are suitable for dyeing. \nYou’ll take home your own hand dyed scarf (sure to make a lovely gift for yourself or someone you love)\, cotton samples and lots of new knowledge and skills.

SUMMARY:Climate Change: Families for a Thriving Future @ Melbourne Museum
DESCRIPTION:Museums Victoria invites families to build their understanding of climate science as they work together to create a climate pledge for their family. \n  \n\nWe are hearing more and more how climate change is affecting our Earth. But what does this really mean for humans and our natural environments\, and is there anything we can do about it? \nAs part of National Science Week\, Climate Change: Families for a thriving future provides an exciting opportunity for families to deepen their understanding of climate science and our changing world\, as they discuss climate action and work together as a family to create a climate pledge. \nThe webinar will begin by unpacking the science behind why our climate is changing. Participants will engage with information from the latest reports as they learn about how climate change is specifically affecting us here in Victoria. \nThe second part of the program will invite families to work together to create a pledge of actions to help us all have a thriving future. \n\nSuitable for families (recommended for children 8 and older)
