The Cultural Learning Framework was developed by the QAGOMA Learning team in consultation with First Nations artists, Elders and young people. The framework is a suggested tool for teachers and students engaging with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural objects and stories, to consider and adopt First Nations knowledge systems in their classrooms. The Learning team also uses this framework to develop regional and student learning programs and resources.

Through ways of knowing, being and doing, the Framework was developed as a collaboration and intends to reflect its inception.
