This is a story about eco-tourism and indigenous culture in two of Australia's most spectacular spots: Tanja Lagoon Camp on the Sapphire Coast, and Wajaana Yaam Adventure Tours, in Gumbaynggirr Country, near Coffs Harbour. Combine them into a coastal road trip and you may just have the perfect Aussie adventure ..."Everywhere we look, in our country here, in Gumbaynggirr Country, we have story, to every landscape, to every mountain, to every river, to everything that we see. To every island, there is knowledge about every place. And it's something that I feel really passionate about because I feel so connected to it through those 60,000 years of history. And I feel very privileged to be a member of our community, and a descendant of all of that knowledge and all of the history. And it's something that I feel really proud about, and I'd like to share that pride."- Clark Webb, Wajaana Yaam Gumbaynggirr Adventure Tours"The local beach, Middle Beach, is a very wild and beautiful piece of coastline, and we went there to watch the moon rise because there's a spot where we can potentially see the sunset and moonrise and it was a full moon we knew we were in for a treat. So we've gone out to the end of the beach and sat on the rocks. And I just remember seeing the moon rising up over the horizon. Just blissing out on, oh yeah, this is what it should be for kids growing up, really feeding on those beautiful places and beautiful moments in nature."- Loz Hunt, Tanja Lagoon CampTrailfinders are the no.1 tour operator to Australia.

One of the notable elements in this year's International Film Festival is the strong representation of Indigenous films and film-makers. One of them is an Australian documentary called Firestarter. In 1989 the Bangarra Dance Theatre was formed in Sydney. It was entirely made up of indigenous Australians - Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders - and its impact was immeasurable. At its heart were three brothers - the Page brothers - the Holy Trinity they were called, not entirely jokingly. The name "Bangarra" means "to make fire". And the documentary that's about to show at the New Zealand International Film Festival is called Firestarter. Simon Morris speaks to Aboriginal director Wayne Blair, who he last spoke to 10 years ago about his first film, the delightful The Sapphires.

Uncle Noel Butler is an indigenous elder of the Yuin Nation (South Coast New South Wales).As a child he spent the days in the bush, hiding from government authorities as they were taking children away from their parents.He was living off the land and the ocean, in absolute communion with the environment that surrounded him and his community.Uncle Noel delivers his knowledge on Aboriginal Culture generously with passion and urgency.Indigenous and Aboriginal culture holds immense value for everyone living on earth, even more so in these times where we find ourselves increasingly alienated from nature.This sacred wisdom is so relevant to the modern man - practical knowledge to live a richer life in greater health, individually and collectively.IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:
In his book Sand Talk: How Indigenous Thinking Can Save the World, author, teacher, artist and Apalech clan member Tyson Yunkaporta presents a model of five minds — kinship mind, story mind, ancestor mind, pattern mind, and dreaming mind — that together form a way of seeing, knowing, and interacting with the world in a relational context. This episode looks at the rampant fragmentation in the modern world — which impacts everything from spiritual movements to transhumanist science to conspiratorial worldviews to progressive discourse — through the lens of these five minds. From Aboriginal rain rituals to QAnon pattern-seekers, from sorcery and curses to alternative communication models, this vibrant and polytropic discussion between Tyson and Josh explores what context means in a fragmented world, and how to truly find it requires seeing beyond obvious dichotomies into deeper layers of connectivity.

Below the Radar has partnered with the Or Galley to bring you recordings of the Gas Imaginary Conversations series. This is the second of two talks from The Gas Imaginary, presented by the Or Gallery. This event was recorded virtually on Dec. 5, 2020. In this panel, Rachel O’Reilly, Tania Willard and Kanahus Manuel—with moderation by Denise Ryner—discuss the ongoing challenges of asserting land rights and the protection of water from each of their respective contexts. The speakers address the role of artistic practices and visual culture in making such struggles resonate with communities, both at home and across distance. Tania Willard, Secwepemc Nation, works as an artist and curator within the shifting ideas of contemporary and traditional as it relates to cultural arts and production. She often engages bodies of knowledge and skills that are conceptually linked to her interest in intersections between Aboriginal and other cultures. Her curatorial work includes Beat Nation: Art Hip Hop and Aboriginal Culture (http://www.vanartgallery.bc.ca/the_exhibitions/exhibit_beat_nation.html), a national touring exhibition first presented at Vancouver Art Gallery in 2011 as well as residencies at grunt gallery and Kamloops Art Gallery. She is currently assistant professor in Creative Studies at University of British Columbia Okanagan (Kelowna BC). She also founded and operates BUSH gallery, a conceptual space for land-based art and action led by Indigenous artists. Kanahus Manuel belongs to the Secwepemc Nation and founded the Tiny House Warrior movement as part of her ongoing work as an Indigenous water and land defender. She is also a member of the Secwepemc Women’s Warrior Society. Her family has led the struggle for rights and sovereignty in Secwepemcul’ecw (territory of the Secwepemc people) for generations. Her late father Arthur Manuel, a former Secwepemc chief and residential school survivor, was an author and global champion for Indigenous rights and title in Canada and abroad. Her late grandfather George Manuel was the second president of the National Indian Brotherhood (now the Assembly of First Nations) and founding president of the World Council of Indigenous Peoples. The Tiny House Warriors: Our Land Is Home Is A Part Of A Mission To Stop The Trans Mountain Pipeline From Crossing Unceded Secwepemc Territory In British Columbia.

Tyson Yunkaporta is an academic, an arts critic, and a researcher who is a member of the Apalech Clan in far north Queensland Australia. He's the author of Sand Talk: How Indigenous Thinking Can Save the World. Sand Talk looks deeply at the basic pattern of nature and how that pattern reflects through all of creation, informing not only how natural systems operate, but reflecting into systems of law, harmonious conduct, and relational communication. Join Tyson and me as we take a journey through the pattern — stopping along the way to talk about ancestral mind, native corn, Game of Thrones, and the best way to approach rocks. Talking about the basic pattern of nature is a rich topic, one which ultimately begs the question, that Old Man Juma in the book keeps getting at, if all this is pattern, then is even the current destructive paradigm part of some greater pattern too?

Ben has been working in multiple fields as a consultant and brings his own unique style to supporting organisations.Within the disability sphere to create outdoor programs that challenge participants and support their personal development of positive coping strategies.In the corporate and government sphere Ben has been driving change through a unique approach of Aboriginal cultural learning and practices to develop strategic planning, communication, change management and team building programs.Ben also works within the tertiary education lecturing in Aboriginal Education and Indigenous Public Health to develop the next generations of professionals perform at their best, as well as business units around social enterprise development, entrepreneurship in rural and remote settings, ethics and thought leadership in business.The key messages I received from this conversation were;- That a change is required in how businesses view ‘successful growth', not as exponential and constant, but to reach a growth target and maintain it sustainably.- To avoid disruption and build sustainable growth, organisations should focus not on eliminating single problems but linking issues to address the larger global solution.- Build communities within employees, consumers and customers to leverage ‘small networks', focusing on the leaders of these and seeking to engage with collective leadership.- Discover the power of storytelling for communication, critically how to ensure core values and organisational ethos are prominent consistently to improve reliability of messaging and knowledge transfer throughout hierarchies, geographies and languages.- How to communicate from a human perspective, both to mitigate the risk and enable the best outcome from visual communication modes.- That to build momentum leaders should bring together and empower teams most effectively at the beginning, end and during a change phase. If this is done correctly the steerage of direction and maintaining of pace becomes much easier.The best way to get in touch with Ben and engage with his knowledge and work is via https://www.sharedpath.org.au/ or connecting with Ben on social media via the links belowlinkedin or facebook

Every year, on the 26th of January we celebrate Australia Day with BBQ's, beaches and of course, the Triple J Hottest 100. Being a White Australian growing up, this was the day Australia was born.So what is Invasion Day? Shouldn't we be proud of the country we live in now? How does what happened 200 years ago effect us in 2020? Shouldn't we all celebrate Australia together?These are honestly the questions I asked myself when I first heard of "Invasion Day". And because of this, one thing that I knew, was that I didn't understand the meaning of Australia Day to Indigenous people.This podcast was my chance to speak with my friend, Shain Stephens, who is from the Iwaidja people. Shain grew up with his people in the Northern Territory and in this interview, shares with us insights into 'What Australia Day means to Aboriginal people'.If you are like me, a White Australian brought up in European Australian culture, I highly recommend.
Mickey Kumatpi Marrutya O'Brien, or Uncle Mickey, is a Senior Aboriginal Man - a descendant of the Kaurna (Adelaide Plains) and Narrunga (Yorke Peninsula) people, and a passionate advocate for Aboriginal culture, language and history.In this episode, Mickey shares and discusses the spiritual connection of the Kaurna people with Adelaide, and how the landscape of Adelaide, and the city's surrounds, tells the stories and history of the land; of two cultures connecting in one place, and his hope for greater recognition of Aboriginal people as scientists, farmers, and philosophers.
Dr. Richard Walley is an artist of many disciplines - a musician, dancer, painter, writer, indigenous activist and educator. He has spent over 40 years educating Australia and the world on Nyoongar culture and identity through the arts.A role model for Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people alike, Richard continues to push boundaries, continually developing personally whilst always focussed on the bigger ‘community’ picture of the Arts, Culture and Environment.In 1978, Richard formed the Middar Aboriginal Theatre which subsequently has taken Nyoongar culture to 32 countries, celebrating and affirming indigenous culture and narrative.A former Australia Council Board member, he was named a State Living Treasure in 2015 for his lifetime contribution to arts and culture in Western Australia.Richard became involved with Aboriginal politics at an early age, having active involvement in the formation and operation of the Aboriginal Housing Board, the Aboriginal Medical Service, Legal Service and the New Era Aboriginal Fellowship. Through his involvement, Richard first became aware of the potential of Aboriginal culture to give the Nyoongar people a sense of pride and identity. This awareness grew throughout the years, as Richard ‘learned’ about his own culture, moving into the world of Theatre and the Arts.It was a privilege to sit down with Richard as he shared his proud Nyoongar heritage and the power of arts to transform and teach and extend our humanity.The Stages podcast is available from iTunes, Spotify and Whooshkaa.
This week on Well Well Well, Jessie leads the show on the topic of Art & Healing in Aboriginal Culture. Art plays a very significant role in Aboriginal culture, or as we will together learn, that even our understanding of "art" may be misguided as a post-colonial concept and that these components are really just part of culture and their way of life. Susannah Day joins us as our guest this week to talk about The Torch which is a project that essentially helps men and women in prison through art. She also shares her personal experience of discovering her identity and how it plays a role in her everyday life. Our very own Peter Walples-Crowe also joins us to chat about how powerful engaging with art can be in connecting an individual to their culture in the process of their healing journey. He also shares his own personal experience of being adopted into a white family, the steps he had to take to re-discover his own Narragu identity and how art helped him in the process of his life-long healing journey. Have a listen or download the podcast of a very meaningful heartfelt show and please feel free to check out Peter's show InsideOUT before the end of July as well as buy some artwork in a way of supporting The Torch and the men and women it serves.
Delta Kay is an Arakwal woman from the Byron Bay region, known as Bundjalung Nation. In this episode I was privileged to share a deeper understanding of the Australian Aboriginal culture. Together, we discussed the importance of preserving and protecting culture, and the beautiful way that aboriginal people nourish, and are nourished by their country. Our Aboriginal culture links the past, present and future and is expressed through our stories, art and songs, our dance and ceremony, and the way we understand and respect Country. Much has been handed down from our ancestors over a long time and we work to keep this valuable knowledge and connection to Country alive. I hope that through this conversation you are inspired to learn more about the culture of the country in which you live and those that you visit. Not just for protecting culture, but to enrich your own experience.
I sit down with Jamie, a proud Gamilaroi woman and one of my greatest teachers and friends, to discuss true matriarchy - as it were (and still is) a part of Aboriginal Culture. We discuss spirituality, respect for women, women's business, community, circles and business grounds, animal totems, connection to the Earth and her cycles, the differences between Matriarchy and our Patriarchal Mainstream Australia today, Motherhood, Birth, the significance of the 'Because of Her We Can' NAIDOC theme and what Jamie has taught me through observing the forgiving, peaceful, respectful way she walks this land. Jamie and I have had many a chat around these topics, but I feel so grateful that she shared her story and ancient feminine wisdom with all of us in this episode.

Running time 17.41 In 2018 Suicide Prevention Australia (SPA) celebrated the 15th Annual LiFE Awards recognising excellence in suicide prevention. The 2018 National Suicide Prevention Conference Dinner played host to this important event and was a chance for the whole sector to appreciate the innovative work being undertaken by our peers and colleagues. The Awards are a prestigious national event that attracts nominations from all areas including business, industry, media, community, government, youth research and medicine – all with an interest in suicide prevention. Nominations are received from all over Australia, and we were delighted with the number of quality nominations this year showcasing the exciting and diverse range of work being undertaken within the field. The nominees range from mainstream programs to local ‘grass roots’ organisations and dedicated individuals. The Awards celebrate the commitment and energy of the nominees and their vital contribution to the reduction of suicide within our communities. At the Award Ceremony, we were delighted to present Joe Williams with the Communities Matter (Individual) Award. Below is a little bit more information about Joe and the work does. We hope you enjoy our conversation with him following his award win. Joe Williams is a proud Wiradjuri First Nations man who not only educates on suicide prevention and mental wellbeing, but also proudly shares his Aboriginal Culture. He speaks of how being spiritually connected and living by the four core values of Love, Care, Respect & Humility he has managed to heal and overcome the adversity he has faced as an Aboriginal man living with mental illness and suicidal ideation. Joe was invited to deliver his 'The Enemy Within' sessions in the remote West Australian community of Carnarvon in conjunction with the local Aboriginal Medical Service. Over three days Joe delivered sessions to various community groups. His ability to connect with such a diverse range of people stems from his own personal pain which he describes in an honest and raw way. This program has had a lasting impact on the community resulting in invitations to return to the community on multiple occasions. Communities see first-hand the significant contribution Joe is making in the suicide prevention sector in Australia and how he is improving the lives of First Nations people through his work. #NSPC18 It is so important to talk openly and safely about suicide but, if listening to this triggers difficult emotions in you, please talk about how you’re feeling with a trusted family member, friend or people at one of our partner organisations.

It's Christmas! So, after the year that was 2016, it's only fair to discuss the most Christmassy film that Australia has to offer. Yep, that'd be John Hillcoat's dirty, disgusting western epic, The Proposition. Once again, Andrew has dragged Michael Denniston from War Machine VS War Horse kicking and screaming to discuss an uplifting epic about death and retribution in summertime 1880's Australia. But, before that discussion, Andrew and Bernadette go into the (short) history of Australian Christmas films, while also discussing the importance of recognising Aboriginal Culture in films.
