Abstract

Quote, page 86: "The notion that Indigenous engagement and placemaking are essential to design thinking is gaining greater currency in Melbourne and, indeed, across Australia. People are coming to understand why we should consider Indigenous perspectives in shaping our places and spaces. The real challenge is less a question of why but rather rests on how. How do we implement such perspectives? How do we ensure and centre Indigenous agency? How do we foreground Indigenous knowledge and connections?"
