On a mediator panel of experts at the Resolution Institute CPD tonight.

I mentioned my friend Bonaventure Timaepatua a fellow mediator from the Tiwi Is , is at the RAH getting treatment and could not make it. So I asked everyone to send him a quick “get well soon”.

Instant waves and smiles everywhere. Mediators really are a good bunch.

Marius is one of the multi-award-winning Ponki mediators on the Tiwi Islands. Sadly, some of the original team I have worked with have passed in recent years, but each year I am invited to share ideas on how to keep the practice of local peacemaking strong (alongside conversations about music, art, fishing, and recent crocodile attacks).

The work is never simple — it sits among many complex social issues — yet the local practice and approach to dispute resolution is steeped in tradition remain deeply genuine.

My fist Kintsugi plate 金継ぎの器 made under the guidance of Master Jun Morioka in Sydney

Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with lacquer and gold, creating something even more beautiful from its cracks and fractures.

Both begin with brokenness, hurt, or conflict. Each piece require patience, respect, and careful attention. And both are about honouring the story of what has happened—rather than hiding it—while creating a stronger, more resilient whole.

Just as a repaired plate carries beauty in its golden seams, mediators can help people discover new pathways, restore understanding, and stronger connections in the very places where things once fell apart.

For those registered for the NMC2025 Kintsugi workshop hope you have fun creating your own special memorabilia.

See you next week at

The traditional fish traps on Tiwi Island , is more than a way of catching food.

It’s about learning culture ways: creating proper structure, strong community and working together.

These traps did not force the fish in. They work with the tide, guiding the fish gently until they come to the right place.

"we don't tell them what to do. We slow thing down, get the story straight, and talk it out proper way and deal with the problem"

Just as the fish trap belongs to everyone and its catch is shared, mediation is for the whole community.

"....some times the nets need to be fixed - we do that together - all clans come together and help fix 'em - we can't do that alone"
