Many teachers don’t feel confident or capable to include Indigenous perspectives in their classrooms. However, curriculums are needing Indigenous perspectives beyond tokenistic inclusion.

This report summarises the comments, suggestions and ideas outlined in the public submissions received. Some of the suggestions and responses contained in this report were made and/or supported by multiple submissions, others were made in a single submission.

Throughout the colonial settlement of Australia, Aboriginal people were subject to processes of colonial dispossession that have had a profound effect on their communities, language and culture, and in many places their over-arching tangible and intangible Country.

This paper considers the interconnection of Aboriginal stone sites in the Wadawurrung Country, as to their landscape relationships and land use planning contexts. With colonial pastoralism and land exploitation by European, and more recently suburbanisation encroachment, a large portion of the pre-colonial tangible landscape has been erased, disfigured and or transformed.
