ABBA BABA | This idea will improve inclusivity in Brighton and promotes culture equality.

What is the problem you found?

The aboriginal people might be feeling discomfort around Brighton Beach because the bathing boxes are a constant reminder of the colonisation and how they were oppressed.

Having the Australian flag on a beach box but no aboriginal representation is counter intuitive because the Brighton Bathing Boxes Association claims to be apologetic and state that they acknowledge the traditional owners on the website, but don't have any representation in person

What is your opportunity?

How might we represent Aboriginal people in one of Australia's famous location

Who is your audience?

Our customers are the Aboriginal people of Australia.

What Is Your Solution?

Having the Australian flag on a bathing box but no Aboriginal representation is counter intuitive since the Brighton Bathing Boxes Association states that they acknowledge the traditional owners on the website, but they don't fashion any in person representation, but they should so the visitors of Brighton are also reminded of the true owners and their history.
