Centre activities focus on collaborative transdisciplinary research projects, special events (for example research forums, symposia, seminars), training workshops and short courses, and performances and exhibitions as they relate to Human and Environment Interactions.
To restore relations with people and place, the Centre has established Katitjin Bidi – an experimental and emerging methodological project that engages in On Country activities based on processes that will be reciprocal, relational, restorative and responsive, to demonstrate being-by-doing Indigenous-supported research. Katitjin Bidi contributes to all our research.
Katitjin Bidi means “knowledge pathway” in Noongar – the language of the Noongar peoples of Southwestern Australia.
The CPPP has three programs of research which work towards our vision for reconnecting people, ecosystems and place-based knowledges for universal well-being.
