an Aboriginal Culinary Journey
Celebrating 65,000 years of Australian food culture
How does it work?
As one of Australia’s leading global brands, Breville invites people from around the world on a journey that combines ancestral Australian art and food culture with the best of contemporary design.
Each artist owns the copyright for their work, which is exclusively licenced to Breville for an Aboriginal Culinary Journey range. They receive a royalty for each product produced.
Why is it needed?
This is an invitation to experience, celebrate and be part of maintaining the world’s oldest living food culture while giving back to the artists and communities who have shared their art and stories for the collection.
How does it improve life?
Breville is donating 100% of our profits from the sale of the 'Aboriginal Culinary Journey' range to create opportunity for Indigenous Australians. We expect to raise just over $1,000,000AUD through the sale of these items globally. Half of the funds will be used to support the National Indigenous Culinary Institute's work to create employment opportunities for aspiring Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander chefs and the 'Indi-Kindi Program' by the Moriarty Foundation to support better childhood nutrition and sharing Indigenous Food Culture. The other half will be used for Indigenous scholarships and initiatives at the University of Technology Sydney to create pathways for employment in engineering, technology and design.
