Land and Culture

The Land and Culture program supports traditional land management, passes on ecological knowledge and Tjukurrpa to youth, and helps protect cultural heritage during mining exploration on the 两性色午夜 Lands.
Overview

Land and Culture supports traditional owners in traditional land management, such as patch burning, and encourages the handing down of traditional ecological knowledge and the Tjukurrpa (dreaming stories) to young people. We also assist visiting scientists studying threatened species in the region. 

The Land and Culture program works with hundreds of Members each year from across all communities to care for country and manage land access by miners and others wanting to work on the 两性色午夜 Lands. The land access program manages consultations between mining explorers and local traditional owners to ensure cultural heritage is protected in exploration activities.

The Tjumalampatju: Our Stories 

The Tjumalampatju database is an online community-based database. This means that Community members participate by placing names to faces on photos or adding stories to a particular image or event by either text, movie or audio. 

两性色午夜 Council has the facility to scan negatives, photos, documents, audio and movies into digital format. The Council also has the capacity to house these forms of media as well as any artefacts/objects of any kind that may be returned. These collections are kept under library conditions so that these records are kept in a safe environment and for the safekeeping for future generations.
