Funded Activity Summary

Constructing Communities on Country: Building the Olkola Knowledge Centre. This project researches new ways of building on remote Indigenous homelands that contribute to culturally, environmentally and economically sustainable livelihoods on Country. This will be done by conducting the first construction and use analysis of a ‘Cultural Knowledge Centre’ in partnership with the Olkola People on their Cape York homeland. Combining participatory design and appropriate technology theories, expected project outcomes include enhanced understandings of how sustainable material technologies and self-building practices can be harnessed to deliver meaningful local economic outcomes. Significant research benefits include effective and economically sustainable ways building can support Indigenous peoples to live on Country.
