Deadly Djurumin

Deadly Djurumin is a group is for Indigenous (Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander) women who are both educated and work in built environment fields and closely related spatial disciplines. We recognise that Indigenous women in the built environment disciplines are severely underrepresented so the Deadly Djurumin group is to provide a space of support for each other. We also acknowledge the challenges of being educated in the built environment and spatial disciplines, where in most cases the content remains colonial and patriarchal so offer support to those who are undertaking their studies at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Djurumin means sister in a number of languages around the Sydney area.
