Bundha Yarrununeit - Unity Against Hate: Anti-Racism training program
A First Nations-led, story- and evidence-based anti-racism learning experience for people and organisations ready to move beyond awareness and into meaningful anti-racism praxis.
Gifted its name by Wurundjeri Elder and Traditional Owner Aunty Gail Smith, Bundha Yarrununeit means Unity Against Hate in Woi Wurrung language.
Designed for workplaces, leaders, boards and community-facing organisations, the course builds a deeper understanding of racism, power and colonisation — and supports practical, accountable solidarity in so-called Australia.
Shaped by community from the beginning, the program draws on the reflections of more than 100 Blackfullas, guidance from a six-person community Brainstrust, First Nations research and policy expertise, and stories shared by Uncle Robbie Thorpe, Stacie Piper, Maggie Blanden and Chris Saunders.

"Many misunderstandings stem from centering whiteness and comfort over truth and justice.
Racism isn’t just about hateful acts - It’s about power, systems, silence and avoidance. Overcoming it requires humility, truth-telling and willingness to unlearn, listen and act."
