The IMPOSSIBLE IS JUST THE NEXT STEP FOR US IN OUR JOURNEY
INDIGENOUS CONFERENCES 100% Proudly presented, formulated, designed and organised By First Nations Peoples
The conference philosophy
The conference philosophy is based upon an approach of “Prevention is better than Cure” which requires a collaborative partnership between all stakeholders, working together to support First Nations communities in addressing Indigenous Men's whole well-being issues to close the gap. The foundation of the conference is to share and discuss positive models of change and initiatives. The event is structured in such a way as to develop a wider methodology toward preventative programs that are culturally appropriate and therefore more likely to succeed.
This conference is devoted to highlighting successful men's general being programs rolled out in our communities and families today. Hence, the event has been developed with the belief that it is time to promote the positives and successes in Indigenous men's programs whilst still recognising that we still have a long way to go to close the gap.
