# QUESTION 002 # WHAT ARE WE PROTECTING?
Culture. Community. Nature. The things we cannot afford to lose. What is worth protecting as the world changes around us? Our cultural inheritance, our natural environment, our shared values, and the ideas, places and institutions that give society meaning. A breakfast conversation about what we value, what we preserve, and what we risk losing in the pursuit of progress. Bringing together three distinct perspectives, we explore who decides what is worth protecting, what we might be overlooking, and what we need to rethink for the future.
THREE LENSES. ONE QUESTION.
DR TIRIKI ONUS — CULTURE Indigenous knowledge, cultural inheritance, representation and the continuity of cultural practice.
TALEI RICHARDS — COMMUNITY Belonging, identity, social cohesion and the forces that hold communities together.
IAN McBURNEY — NATURE Ecological sustainability, our relationship with the natural world and the responsibility to protect it.
Three perspectives. One question. No easy answers.
FRIDAY 27 NOVEMBER 2026 7:30AM FOR 8:00AM START SCULPTFORM, MELBOURNE BREAKFAST INCLUDED.
