Director and chief facilitator of the program Kanat Wano of the Torres Island Komet tribe said the background and research of this concept was a platform to emancipate the mind of the socially marginalised.
“Senator Patrick Dodson spoke of ‘Poverty of Spirit’ in 2009, as that year’s Australian of the Year addressing the impacts of loss, grief and subsequent complex trauma within First Nations peoples and communities,” Mr Wano said. “Raising the spiritual landscapes of our Australian First Peoples, is a key driver to ‘Replenish Spirit’ to revive, recover and heal the Human Spirit to not only survive but to thrive.”
Topics in the seminar include trauma, power words, motivational service delivery models, Uluru Factor Strong Talk, Strong Practice and Sunrise 2 Sunset formatting for resilience and strong walk.
Seminar partner Young People Ahead will host the events at their conference rooms, 11 Fourth Ave. Parkside.
