Stories from the Ground

Aboriginal people share stories of their perspectives and experiences of wellbeing in this series of short documentaries that focus on: culture, education and work. These three films are 6-8 minutes in length, designed to listen deeply and learn from the custodians of the land.

We encourage you to use these films in education, work and life to deepen your understanding and work towards growing wellbeing for Aboriginal people.

Culture

Education
