Kathleen Hannah

Kathleen’s passion for protecting the environment saw her complete a Bachelor of Science in Conservation Biology and Ecology and an Honours Degree studying the use of Chronomids as a biomonitoring tool for aquatic salinity. An interest and desire to inspire saw Kathleen graduate with a  Diploma of Primary Education and has since taught across both Primary and Secondary year levels.

Kathleen has had the privilege of living, working, and learning in a number of Indigenous Communities across the Top End of Australia as both a classroom teacher in a remote community in the Kimberley and working in various positions for the Batchelor Institute of Indigenous Education.

Kaleb Ross

With a background in ecological horticulture and organic food production, Kaleb has a deep interest in ethnobotany and learning from Indigenous cultures to find solutions to the biggest issues we face as a society, specifically relating to production of food, medicine and functional materials.

Kaleb envisions a future where all nations and cultures come together to focus on caring for the planet and all of its residents, and believes the education and empowerment of young people today is a fundamental component of achieving this.
