Charting Our Course
In May 2023 thirty representatives from the local community, local organisations, State, Federal and Local government, philanthropic funders, education, health, legal services and police came together to discuss the findings from the Learning the Macleay Early Stage Mapping process.
The purpose of the Learning Circle workshop was to focus on the ways of working together differently and to decide the commitments for the upcoming 12 months.
Over the workshop the group decided to focus on three priority areas; Racism, Relationships and Right Timing.

Racism
Relationships
Right Timing
How might the issue of racism be approached in key critical areas such as policing and education and community members who want to engage but don’t see or feel its impact?
How might existing tensions between local Aboriginal community members and organisations be held and processed to enable new ways of working together?
How might Learning the Macleay hold competing tensions between urgency for change and the time it takes to learn together differently?
