Celebrating the RDA and the impacts of Nature Therapy

What if the path to preserving cultural heritage began with education? In this special 25th episode of Season 2 of Connect and Share with Outdoors NSW and ACT, we explore the inspiring initiatives making a difference in our community. We start by honoring the traditional owners of the lands and reflecting on Clark Webb's impactful first language school initiative. From there, we celebrate the successes of recent industry events like the Masterclass and Mini Conference, and raise a toast to our athletes, including the remarkable Jess Fox and her gold medal triumph. We also touch on the upcoming review of the AAAS and Good Practice Guide, and share a heartfelt moment from RDA Riding Disability Australia's horse's birthday celebration, highlighting the profound influence of their work in outdoor recreation and nature therapy.

Looking ahead, we spotlight several key events for outdoor enthusiasts and professionals in Australia. Mark your calendars for the Backcountry Summit on October 16th, where the snow activities best practice discussion paper will take center stage. Mountain biking fans won't want to miss the Mountain Bike Symposium in Marimbula on October 25th and 26th, featuring engaging talks and critical discussions.
