Podcasts about Arnhem Land

In this episode of The Horse's Mouth, I had the great pleasure of talking with Dr Dzavid Haveric. Dzavid is a force of nature — an academic of the highest order, you might say. He's one of the most well-read people I've ever met and has dedicated his life's work to history, particularly the story of early Muslims trading with the First Nations people of Arnhem Land prior to white colonisation. His published work also explores Muslims fighting alongside Australians in the Boer War and both World Wars. To date, he has had 16 books published, along with numerous university papers. Dzavid's own story is just as remarkable. He grew up in Bosnia and fled when Serbia invaded in the early 1990s, eventually making his way to Australia. Dzavid's life is an incredible story, and I was thrilled to have him on for a chat. Cheers, Dzavid.

Peter Marralwanga (1916–1987) was a leading figure in one of the great art practices of the world. He grew up in western Arnhem Land surrounded by artists painting in rock shelters and he learned to paint this way himself. The subjects of his paintings were the Djang who made his country and placed the spirits of people within it. Marralwanga's story highlights the way bark painting became important as a way of evading assimilation policies rife within Northern Territory towns. Marralwanga established an outstation at Marrkolidjban where he could teach his children how to properly care for Ancestral lands, with part of this care involving a knowledge of how to paint. As a senior person who had travelled widely in his youth, and gained extensive ceremonial knowledge, Marralwanga was highly influential among a broad group of painters. Ivan Namirrkki, a painter of note and Peter Marralwanga's son, has provided here his own account of his father's life.This book tracks Marralwanga's life of learning about country and conveys the religious meaning of numerous major works, offering outsiders a richer understanding and appreciation of Arnhem Land art. It also shows the crucial role of individuals working for the community arts cooperative Maningrida Arts and Culture in facilitating Marralwanga's rise to recognition as a major Australian and world artist.In this episode Gregory Dobbs chats to Luke Taylor about the tradition of Aboriginal bark painting that Peter Marralwanga drew from, the depth of knowledge of Aboriginal culture and ceremony that he brought to his paintings, and the political dimension to Marralwanga's work and its role in the developing land rights movement of the 1960s and 70s in Australia.

Dr Nick Kowalenko and Dr Daniel Issa explore the critical need for child and adolescent psychiatry in Cambodia, highlighting the CO-CAPIT project, which aims to provide online training for local doctors. Their discussion emphasises the importance of community engagement, international collaboration, and tailored training initiatives to address the gaps in mental health services. Challenges such as limited resources and cultural differences are acknowledged, along with the need for ongoing support and mentorship for early career psychiatrists. Dr Kowalenko and Dr Issa conclude with a call to action for greater involvement in global mental health initiatives.Dr Nick Kowalenko is the Chair, International Projects Committee (IPC), RANZCP & was previously Chair of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry International Relations (CAPIR) Committee (2017-2025). Together with a very committed group of College members, he has shared the leadership of several workforce development, training and leadership initiatives in the Pacific and Asia.Dr Daniel Issa is an Early Career Psychiatrist and senior CAMHS advanced trainee. He has a keen interest in the Global, Indigenous and Refugee Mental Health spaces. Daniel started Psychiatric training in Darwin with brief stints across Arnhem Land before moving to the Hunter New England Network.
