“Aunty Munya is very engaging and easy to listen to. The key take-away for me was to keep a check on my unconscious bias and to listen and reflect with an open mind. I would tell anyone considering this program that they will absolutely learn something new from this training!”

Some of our happy reconciliation and cultural competency partners















“Thank you Aunty Munya and Carla, for your hospitality and generosity in yarning with me. I felt both humbled by how little I knew, and inspired by the wisdom. It is my privilege to learn from you.”
“I really appreciated the simple, straightforward, friendly approach and the examples Aunty Munya and Carla gave from their own experience. I now feel confident that I can work alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in a way that is supportive and effective.”
“It was so easy to understand and digest. I learned so much! It has opened my eyes to so much that I didn’t know but also ways that I can become an Ally. My advice to others is to do it! It’s fantastic!”
“I haven’t stopped telling colleagues and friends about Munya’s intelligent and insightful teaching style. Before the program, I was hesitant to reach out to learn more – I did not want to be intrusive, but Munya showed me how this can be done in a respectful and helpful way. This training turns theory into something practical, accessible and meaningful. It left me feeling inspired about change for the first people of Australia, and I learnt a lot about my culture too.”
“I loved that there was a great mix of activities and information and that we were being taught by someone with great experience in the subject matter. I really enjoyed that it wasn’t “us vs them” as the training I have done in the past has been. It was just extremely informative, and it focused on similarities as well as differences. Do it! As well as learning a lot, it was a fun and interactive day.”
“As Australians, we sometimes fall into the trap of thinking that we’re informed about Aboriginal culture due to lessons in primary/high school – I learnt so much in one day that was not raised at all at school. I found the program incredibly worthwhile and I would encourage anyone to attend.”
“I really loved the warmth and kindness of Carla and Munya and the openness of discussions. This felt like a very safe place to engage and ask questions, and I learned a lot. Go to this training with an open heart and mind, and you will enrich your life – both personally and professionally.”
“I loved this training. It was great to learn in so many different ways – story telling, watching videos, listening to songs, doing group activities and self reflecting. It is so important for every workplace to take part in this training. In fact, everyone in Australia should!”
“Many of our staff tell us it is the best cultural competency training they have ever experienced and has transformed their approach to working with Aboriginal health organisations. I encourage others to partner with Evolve because of their strategic, thorough and holistic approach.”
“With Evolve we created a resource to support our people to be more culturally aware in delivering health and care in Australia and provide guidance on showing respect to our Traditional Owners. Working together was very much a partnership and a unique learning experience that supported our commitment to Reconciliation.”
“Working with Evolve has been a great partnership towards increasing our organisational cultural awareness at a national level. The tailored programs are highly interactive and experiential. I have observed our staff walking away with increased levels of confidence, understanding and inspiration and often with the positive exclamation ‘best training ever’.”
