As an Australian-owned company, we are passionate about developing key initiatives supporting and providing opportunities for First Nations peoples, their communities and businesses.
We worked closely with First Nations artists Jason Douglas and Trevor Eastwood from Dalmarri on the packaging, creating artwork that reflected Livingstone’s core values.
Duga means to give or to supply.
The artwork illustrates the many layers of Livingstone International, which has provided healthcare products to all communities through research, knowledge, and development since its beginnings.
In the heart of our story; the central, small dots symbolise growth and prosperity emerging from our commitment to healthcare, depicted by the larger white dots.
Circling this narrative are ‘U’-shaped symbols that signify our connection to First Nations people, elders, and families. These shapes resonate with our dedication to honouring their wisdom and heritage.
Beyond these symbols lie smaller outer circles, representing Livingstone’s meeting grounds. Here, we continuously strive to elevate the quality of life and standards in outer regional areas, enriching the lives of our communities. This journey shapes our ongoing commitment to progress and inclusivity.
The large light and dark green dots are walking tracks, now roads and pathways that connect Livingstone International to provide and supply these products to improve the health of all communities.
Miyan means in this together to provide and care for another.
The artwork story represents the centre meeting place, the spiritual home and the half U’s symbolises elders who yarn and talk over important decisions.
The layers and lines are all the barriers Livingstone International has worked through to provide continuous support and improve the health of First Nations people. The blue lines are the contours and terrains of the country allowing safe passage into those areas in need.
The coloured dots represent the First Nations people benefiting from Livingstone International, receiving the care they need.
The wavy lines and black dots are the journeys Livingstone International takes to provide this service to the community.
