Importance: High
Linga Longa Aboriginal Philosophy Farm
Presents
2nd Annual Aboriginal Philosophy Week - 1999
Linga Longa Aboriginal Philosophy Farm's Collaboration - 1999
is open to members of the international community and will be a
philosophical exploration of the connections existing between
Reconciliation, Spiritual Health and a Sense of Place.
Aboriginal Philosophy Farm encourages peoples of all backgrounds
and ages, from recognised and unrecognised nations, to attend and
participate.
The 2nd Annual Philosophy Week Conference will build on the success
of last year's "Sustainability" Conference. Once again participants
will live as a community for a week and experience an essence of
Aboriginal culture and belief from leading Aboriginal philosophers
and healers.
This April hopes to give the world a better idea of what can be
achieved when first peoples have sovereign control over their
knowledge and land.
