About Desert Knowledge Precinct Educational Experiences – full day

If your interests are in learning more about Indigenous Culture, Knowledge and Wisdom; renewable energy systems; satellite technology; adapting for climate change and arid zone sustainability; then, please consider this full day educational experience. Features include: two Speaker Presentations, visits to the DKA Solar Centre, Batchelor Institute, Centre for Appropriate Technology's RTE ground station satellite dishes, and cost includes breakfast and lunch at the onsite Irrarnte Café.
