The Blurred Borders ProjectMany culturally connected Aboriginal communities span the Northern Territory/Western Australia border. Different laws apply on each side of the border, which can create confusion about the law for local Aboriginal people. The aim of Blurred Borders is to produce resource kits for legal and community service providers working with Aboriginal people in the NT/WA cross-border region. The resource kits use visual art and storytelling to help explain, in a culturally accessible way, the key legal concepts around bail and the criminal process, and family violence. These resources are also helpful for non-Aboriginal people and have been used with CALD individuals and those with cognitive impairments. |

Phase Two Building on the success of the 2012 project, which took the Elephant on tour, and utilising much of the already developed imagery and materials, we placed 70,000 drink coasters in venues across the Barwon region. The aim was for as many venues as possible to use our coasters rather than those provided by their liquor suppliers for the duration of the Month of Action (MOA) (Nov 2014).
