Impact
We bring Australia to the UAE. Wattle is a friendly koala mascot, who embodies the spirit of Australia. Jali, which means tree in Bundjalung Indigenous language, is our free spirited, curious butterfly and Wattle's sidekick and faithful friend.

We look forward to their expo journey as they connect us to the past and unearth new creative ways to shape our future. Their presence will engage and attract visitors to the Australian dreamland bringing a piece of Australia to Dubai and the world.
