The report sets out key findings and discussion across a range of areas, including:

• Program findings and reflection;

• School engagement and classroom response;

• Digital engagement and social media activity;

• Dissemination through presentations, publications and recognition.

Alongside outcomes and evaluation, the report showcases the resources and lesson materials created by Ngarrngga to assist educators in bringing the themes and works from the exhibition into the classroom.

We encourage all educators, partners and stakeholders to read the report, explore the resources, and consider opportunities to collaborate with us on future initiatives.

These resources were made possible by the generosity of Peter McMullin and Ruth McMullin enabling the secondment of Associate Professor Abbey MacDonald from the University of Tasmania.
