Our story

YARN Australia was founded by Warren Roberts in 2007 in Sydney on Bidjigal Country to encourage Australians to build intentional relationships with Original Sovereign Nations of Australia through storytelling, events and workshops.

 

What our community says

““The work Warren is doing with YARN to establish an open dialogue and greater understanding between Original Sovereign Nations of Australia and non-Indigenous Australians is of utmost importance if we are to overcome the socio-political and environmental challenges of our time by engaging the collective wisdom of a unified and co-operative culture. Such wisdom calls us to respect our past, remain compassionately present and have the foresight to see beyond our own desires and make better decisions in service of all that will follow.”
— Bryn Tirums
“Warren Roberts, Founder of YARN Australia took us through a workshop on how to share a yarn, on how to tell a story and taught us about the different ways on how to communicate, and that’s what this really all about. We don’t always need to try and fix things. We just need to listen and build a relationship from there and then amazing things can happen. I think we’re going down a path where we can find a place and treat each other as equals, regardless of where you come from. I think in terms of my role in helping build the knowledge and the understanding around Indigenous cultures, I think that’s just the beginning for me, I can’t wait to see where that journey goes. It’s an educational journey, I think it’s one we can all take.”
