How it Began
The MLA Educational Series grew from more than a decade of research, storytelling and First Nations collaboration undertaken alongside the development of Magic Lands: Ngarram — Where Two Worlds Collide.
What began as research for storytelling has grown into a broader educational platform exploring Culture, Country, history, science, ecology and place.
“Country holds the story — we are here to learn how to listen.”
