David Denborough works as a community practitioner, teacher and writer/editor for Dulwich Centre. He also writes for the theatre. Recent teaching/community assignments have included Palestine, Thailand, Israel, Bosnia, Rwanda, Uganda, Canada, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, South Africa and a number of Aboriginal Australian communities. David’s songs in response to current social issues have received airplay throughout Australia and Canada. He is vitally interested in avoiding psychological colonisation, developing forms of practice relevant to the most marginalised, and in cross-cultural inventions through cross-cultural partnerships (such as the Tree of Life and Team of Life).
