Our Ways, Our Wealth Women's Forum 2026

Free Event! Calling First Nations women in Naarm. Join the First Nations Foundation for Our Ways, Our Wealth, a two-day forum created for First Nations women who are building, growing or dreaming about a business. This culturally safe and inclusive gathering is an opportunity to connect, yarn, learn and share with other First Nations women, while building practical knowledge around money, business and financial wellbeing. Across two days, we’ll hear from inspiring First Nations women in business, culture and community and take part in honest conversations about the realities of being a woman in business — from knowing your worth and pricing your products and services, to managing responsibilities, understanding superannuation and tax, accessing capital, building your brand and growing your income. The forum will feature panels, small-group yarning sessions and interactive learning opportunities, creating space to share lived experiences, ask questions and build meaningful connections. What you can expect: • Inspiring conversations with First Nations women in business, culture and community • Practical financial literacy and business skills you can take into your everyday life • Small-group yarning sessions on topics including pricing, superannuation, tax, accessing capital and understanding your business type • Conversations about purpose, knowing your “why”, values and wellbeing • Insights into how branding and marketing can impact your income • Opportunities to connect and build your network with other First Nations women • A culturally safe space to share, learn and celebrate the strength and success of First Nations women Whether you’re already running a business, thinking about starting one, or simply want to strengthen your financial knowledge, Our Ways, Our Wealth is a space for you.
