What Australians Together does

Australians Together is an Australian not-for-profit organization founded in 2010 by Stewart Bogle, headquartered in Burnside, with a team of 11–50 staff. Its mission is to reduce the disconnect between First Nations peoples and non-Indigenous Australians by providing educational resources, professional learning, and structured toolkits centered on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories, cultures, and perspectives. The organization's work is anchored in the proprietary Australians Together Learning Framework, organized around five Key Ideas (The Wound, Our History, Why Me, Our Cultures, My Response), and is produced in collaboration with First Nations Elders, academics, writers, and cultural advisors, including cultural consultant Dr Aleryk Fricker (Dja Dja Wurrung).

The product portfolio spans free Foundation to Year 10 curriculum resources, paid professional learning workshops (Building Confidence, Our Cultures, Our History, Building Cultural Awareness, Meaningful Action), a 90-minute self-paced Building Confidence Course, and a four-tier Meaningful Action Toolkit line priced at AUD $29 (Classroom), AUD $349 (School), AUD $1,799 (Workplace), and free (Home), plus services such as Curriculum Coaching and Customised Resource Development. Resources align with the Australian Curriculum's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures cross-curriculum priority and AITSL Standard 2.4. There is no proprietary technology platform, no API, and no app product; delivery is through a standard CMS website with Zoho Bookings for scheduling.

The business model combines freemium curriculum access (registration-gated) with one-time toolkit purchases, paid group workshops and courses, and tax-deductible public donations. GTM is sales-led and direct: the organization reaches teachers and schools through website engagement, testimonial-driven content, educational conferences, and direct institutional partnerships (e.g., Sandhurst Diocese Schools), and is extending into the corporate segment with dedicated workplace workshops and the AUD $1,799 Workplace Toolkit. The organization is led by Executive Director Liam Glover, a Bundjalung man appointed in 2023.
