About the Event

This cultural gathering for our mob will focus on Wilkurr (Dingo in Wergaia) and will include a series of presentations that will lead to informed decision-making by the Wotjobaluk Nations. 

As the cultural custodians and relatives of Wilkurr in the Big Desert, we need to establish our leadership at the forefront of the more recent movement to protect and ensure the survival of Wilkurr, and the best way to do that is by building our knowledge base, having our voice heard, and establishing genuine partnerships with stakeholders already working in this space. We hope that the Wilkurr Cultural gathering will be the next step in enabling us to achieve these outcomes.

We aim to gather at midday 

For the information-sharing and workshop component of the event, we are looking at running it based on themes or subjects:

  • Wilkurr in Wotjobaluk Lore (stories).

  • Wilkurr Origin and Relationship with Indigenous People.
