Talking Teaching would like to acknowledge the Kulin Nations, true owners, caretakers, and custodians of the land from which we produce and broadcast.
We pay respect to elders past and present of the Kulin Nation and extend that respect to other Indigenous Australians listening.
We also acknowledge the place of indigenous knowledges at the university and in education.
Today I'm joined by Professor Therese Hoffenbeck.
