AMaGA National Conference | Concurrent Session: Education & Exhibitions National Networks

September 20 @ 12:30 pm - 3:30 pm

Humffray Room

(un)Common Ground is a space where old and new ideas collide, where understandings and priorities converge, and where conversations between colleagues and communities are navigated.

(un)Common Ground is an exploration of what brings us together and what keeps us apart. It explores the blurred boundaries where commonalities and divisions intertwine. The theme invites reflections and conversations that explore the relationships, structures and gaps that define (or constrain) our sector.

We invite participants to join us in Ballarat on Wadawurrung Country for important conversations inspired by the theme of (un)Common Ground, activism, coexistence, gatekeeping and innovation.

Registration desk, enquiries.
The registration and information desk will be open for the duration of the conference and will serve as your main point of contact for all enquiries.

The registration desk will be located in the Mining Exchange.

Program is correct at the time of publication, it is however subject to  change, refer to the full program for updates.

This event takes place on Wadawurrung Country. Ballaarat Mechanics’ Institute acknowledges the Wadawurrung People of the Kulin Nation as the first inhabitants and Traditional Custodians of the lands where we work, learn and create. Always Was, Always Will Be, Aboriginal Land.
