During this session an activity is done which allows participant to ask any question regarding Indigenous peoples / issues in complete anonymity. All questions are collected and answered by myself and consultants after the session. All answers are returned to your department for distribution back to participants.

The information collected provides clear, honest insight of your staffs understanding regarding Indigenous peoples and issues.
