This past week, we had the honor of supporting Newkind 2024, an inspiring four-day event held from Saturday, November 2nd, to Tuesday, November 5th, on the beautiful Dja Dja Wurrung Country in Redbank, Victoria. Newkind isn’t just any event—it’s a unique festival-style social change conference, bringing people together under the stars to engage in discussions, workshops, art, and entertainment, all centered around Rest, Repair, and Redesign.
The Newkind experience is designed to nurture and uplift participants, sparking conversations that inspire positive action within our communities. From thought-provoking panels to hands-on workshops, the conference celebrates the strength of human connection and our shared commitment to social and environmental change. As guests camped out under the open sky, surrounded by nature, they were provided with nourishing meals and the chance to connect with like-minded people, forging bonds and fostering ideas that will ripple out into their communities.
### Gillibrand Outdoor’s Role in Newkind 2024
At Gillibrand Outdoor, we were thrilled to contribute to this transformative experience by providing our tents to Newkind participants. Our tents helped ensure a comfortable and sturdy shelter, allowing attendees to fully embrace the outdoor spirit of the conference without sacrificing the convenience and protection of quality camping gear. It was a perfect fit for our brand, aligning with our passion for not only making the outdoors accessible but also supporting causes that promote meaningful change.
Witnessing our tents in action at Newkind was rewarding; they provided a reliable refuge where people could relax, recharge, and rest in between the various activities. We’re proud to have played a part in creating a space where participants could gather, learn, and connect in nature.
### Looking Ahead
Supporting Newkind 2024 was more than just a sponsorship—it was an opportunity to join a movement committed to reshaping our future for the better. As we look ahead, we’re excited to continue supporting initiatives that align with our values of community, sustainability, and accessibility to nature.
To all who were a part of Newkind 2024, thank you for allowing us to share this meaningful journey with you. We’re inspired by the energy, ideas, and connections that were created, and we look forward to many more partnerships that celebrate the spirit of positive change.
