Preserving Multicultural Women's Traditional Ecological Knowledge

Calling all migrant and refugee women in Wyndham! Join a Creative Plant-Based Journey in Wyndham!

Do you have a passion for creativity, culture, and the power of plants in food, medicine, or ceremonies? Wyndham City Council, in collaboration with Monash University, invites you to be part of a unique, community-led research project that celebrates plant knowledge and cultural heritage.

Program Dates: 4 August – 15 November 2025
Location: Various Wyndham locations, including Penrose Promenade Community Centre
Open to: 20 migrant and former refugee women living in Wyndham
Cost: Free to participate!

This project is all about honouring plant knowledge passed down through generations — and how it lives in your everyday life.

Together, we’ll share stories, explore traditional practices, and connect through creative expression.

What’s Involved:

Creative textile and craft gatherings
Inspiring local excursions
Sessions with qualified naturopaths
Story-sharing interviews in a safe, welcoming space
No experience is needed — just bring your voice, heritage, and creative spirit.
