Country and its deep past is a vital part of First Peoples’ heritage. To respect this heritage and “keep everything in balance,” built environment professionals must develop relationships with local communities who can narrate and interpret for each project. Danièle Hromek explains how she supports non-Indigenous practitioners to ensure that Country is at the heart of their designs.
Djinjama honours our connections to Country, community, culture and kin through our work. Djinjama’s projects actively interact with lands, waters and air, and as such we actively protect the rights of Country to be healthy in our work. We respect Traditional Custodians who have long cared for Country and aim to elevate First Voices in all our work. We are grateful to Elders and Knowledge Holders for their continued sharing of wisdom, story, language, and knowledge.
Cultural Sensitivity Warning
For some First Nations communities it is customary not to mention names or reproduce images associated with the recently deceased. Members of these communities are respectfully advised that there may be people who have passed away mentioned in writing or depicted in image in on this website.
