Wajaar Durrunda
Funded by Resilience NSW
This project will bring Gumbaynggirr custodians, young and old, together to create space where Elders can share cultural values and pass traditional knowledge and skills to younger custodians.
This has a huge social value for Aboriginal people in Bowraville but also will facilitate coming together with other individuals and community groups in the Nambucca Valley.
Socially, students and youth will learn about native forest and riverbank regeneration as well as native plants and what ecosystems regeneration looks like; this will foster creative minds and employment opportunities for young people in Bowraville, improving self-worth and identity.
