What is the Indigenous Mapping Workshop (IMW) – On Demand?

IMW – On Demand hosts Indigenous mapping workshops on a range of platforms and mapping software.

IMW teaches Indigenous-led organisations to use digital and geospatial tools to collect, host, visualise, share and publish maps to support their community objectives.

Content is culturally appropriate for participants of all mapping abilities.

About the workshops

Workshops are self-paced and available for participants to access at their leisure. Participants will use both desktop learning and virtual labs.

IMW – On Demand is hosted on Might Networks, an online community and course platform that all IMW participants can access.

Users do not need to have any technical skills and participation is free for anyone who has been accepted.

Who should apply to attend?

The workshops are designed for people working directly with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities or organisations in Australia.

To ensure there is space for a diverse group of participants, there is a limit of 2 participants per community or organisation.

Why IMW Australia – On Demand?

IMW Australia – On Demand is an opportunity to access culturally appropriate and expert-led training from the comfort of your community.

Will I need to pay for access to learning materials or software?

No. All accepted applicants will have access to IMW – On Demand free of charge. This includes access to any software required to participate.

Do I have to submit an application?

Yes. Even though IMW – On Demand is run online, the application process is still in place. Participants need to be accepted before they can access the digital content.
