Cultural Principles and Protocols was authored by Dr Danièle Hromek and Dr Terri Janke and published by Djinjama. These principles and protocols are for designers and those working in design industries who are proposing to work with Indigenous peoples and communities. They are also relevant for academic design staff intending to incorporate Indigenous cultural content into their curricula.

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.
