Abstract

At this billabong we set up camp and dig down into more detail about the different types of trauma that affect us as human beings, and how for colonised peoples that trauma can be multi-layered and complex to recognise and heal from. Some of the traumas such as institutional trauma, intergenerational trauma and historical trauma as well as developmental trauma can be triggering to read about if you have a trauma story yourself, so take care when sitting at this billabong.
