Rhys Paddick, Aboriginal Educator, talks Acknowledgement of Country and how to get it right.
Description
Acknowledgment of Country; we’ve heard this introduction hundreds of times at schools, meetings, events and more. But how many of us truly understand why it’s important and how to get it right?
Put aside everything you think you know about doing an Acknowledgment of Country and get ready to re-consider your approach. In this episode of Commical, Marie is joined by Aboriginal educator, Rhys Paddick. He provides a fresh new perspective on how we can use Acknowledgment of Country to authentically express our respect for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, culture and land.
After the episode, Marie put her writing skills to the test. Check out her attempt at writing a personal Acknowledgment of Country and see Rhys’ feedback here.
