Connecting with Country
Walk on Cammeraygal Country
First Nations First
We bring together the Aboriginal Elders and Knowledge Holders, our clients and stakeholders to shape a truer sense of Country for all.
From coordinating Walks on Country and Cultural Values Assessments to community consultation and Connecting with Country reports, Artefact works collaboratively with you to provide a broad range of services to inform the planning, design and delivery of built environment projects.
We listen respectfully to Aboriginal perspectives, views and narratives. Importantly, we follow best practice ICIP protocols and ask permission for how this valuable intangible information could inform and improve new projects.
Collectively our services provide pathways to ensure Aboriginal perspectives are integrated into new developments to respectfully acknowledge Country.

What our clients say
“I would like to congratulate Artefact on their high level of professionalism and skill in engaging with Aboriginal community. As an Aboriginal person and someone who has worked in the public service for some time it is rare to find non-Aboriginal people who engage so well and are 100% committed to getting Aboriginal content correct.”
Tabatha Cann, Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Officer, Transport for NSW
