The eighth gathering of the Healing Our Spirit Worldwide event, is looking to reduce the inter-generational trauma through Indigenous-led healing.


First Nations people from around the world are gathering in Sydney this week for the Healing Our Spirit Worldwide event.

The event, which was started in 1992 and is co-hosted this year by The Healing Foundation and the University of Sydney, looks to encourage participants to share knowledge and ideas on healing trauma.

More than 1000 people - including First Nations Elders, traditional healers, young leaders, trauma experts, academics, and politicians - are attending the event.

The eighth gathering of the Healing Our Spirit Worldwide event, which runs until November 30, is looking to reduce that inter-generational trauma through Indigenous-led healing.

NITV Radio’s Danny Teece-Johnson visited the conference and spoke with International delegates & members of the Stolen generation to understand what this event means to them.
