  In the new VCE Product Design & Technologies study design, there is a major focus on “providing opportunities for students to develop understandings of the significant contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ connection to Country, place and culture through the acknowledgement of tradition and culture, and how product design can be a demonstration of culture.”

  Our 2024 symposium, delivered in partnership with Monash MADA, will build confidence and skills in teachers to appropriately celebrate First Nations' knowledge and experience in their PD&T classes.

  Featuring case studies of First Nations designers, essential information from the Australian Indigenous Design Charter, project examples and activities, this day is a must for all educators of Design & Technologies and PD&T who wish to enrich their teaching and build an understanding in their students of how culture influences design.
