Bundanon

Bundanon is delighted to be lead partner of PONY’s new project CONFLUENCE, which is part of the British Council’s official UK / Australia Season Programme, a joint initiative between the British Council and the Australian Government’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade.

Collaborating with The Cabot Institute for the Environment and other supporters, the multi-faceted project will make connections between the past, present, and future to inspire deeper understanding of the climate crisis. Disseminating the latest scientific research, First Nations cultural expression and the different ways societies communicate with the natural world; and how these responses inform changing ideas about what it means to be human.

CONFLUENCE aims to transform perspectives of place, build solidarity, and share new narratives; altering how people emotionally engage with the natural world through new site-responsive encounters, curated conversations, and digital platforms that encourage the mobilisation of diverse expertise across sectors and countries to activate a shared imagination for the future.
