Exploration of the different roles, responsibilities and domains of authority of Aboriginal men and women. The way 'traditional' patterns and practices, often described as 'men's business' and 'women's business', have been adapted and transformed since colonisation is explored also. There will be some scope for students to critically reflect on specifically gendered knowledge and social, cultural and historical identity formation.
