Australian South Sea Islander training workshop and resources

Two training resources, a history document and a workshop have been developed to raise awareness and understanding of Australian South Sea Islanders and their culture.

These resources have been designed for government employees and educators to provide a source of information about the culture and unique heritage of Australian South Sea Islanders.
