Pulp n' Paper
Crafted with passion
About Our Project
Welcome to our pulp and paper project! Our mission is to raise awareness about the paper supply shortage in Australia and promote a reduction in timber harvesting. We're doing this by encouraging creative solutions such as recycling used paper into useful products on our campus. The collected paper will be shredded and blended into a pulp and moulded into recycled paper using our papermaking kit. The paper making kit is capable of creating flashcards, mini notebooks, envelopes, compostable pots, paper bags, and printing paper with pressed flowers.
The team will also provide workshops to teach people how to create their very own paper products at home with the papermaking kit we will provide. By taking these initiatives, we aim to support the net zero carbon plan and the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals, aligning with our commitment to protecting our country's resources. Join us in making a positive impact and safeguarding our environment for the future.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY
We extend our acknowledgment to the forebears, seniors, and kin of the Kulin Nation (for our Melbourne campuses), the Eora Nation (for our Sydney campus), and the Yulara/Yugarapul and Turrbal Nation (for our Brisbane campus). These groups are the original custodians of the University's lands. While we contribute our individual knowledge and customs within the University, it is important to honor the profound wisdom enshrined within the Aboriginal community and affirm their custodianship of the land.
We respect that the ground upon which we gather, learn, and exchange wisdom is steeped in long-standing ceremonies of revelry, initiation, and rejuvenation. The customary practices and vibrant culture of the Traditional Owners hold a distinctive place in the life of this area.
