Abstract

As a matter of fact you’re on Country every day, everywhere you go… It’s the same place you send students to study, explore and examine, as you yourself may have done as a student, to give them practical application for their engineering learning. From an Aboriginal perspective, the point is, wherever you are at this very moment, you’re on Country.
