Program.
The IPE Colloquium is a safe space for discussion on leadership, curriculum, and interprofessional collaboration, and provides a platform to yarn and share evidence-based methods from across the health professions. Together, we’re engaging in an exploration into storytelling, and how Indigenous leadership and knowledges can enhance the current narrative of health profession education and practice.
Join us to learn from and with colleagues from across health professions working towards culturally safe practice and learning.
Winhangarra
Listen, Hear, Think
The Australian Pharmacy Council is committed to amplifying Indigenous voices so that they are leading and guiding our work to contribute to a culturally safe pharmacy workforce.
Drawn from Wiradjuri language, Winhangarra means to listen, hear and think. By honouring Winhangarra, we can collectively aim for transformational change in health profession education. This means to disrupt it in such a way that broadens thinking beyond the accepted systems.
