wawa biik Newsletters

Please click here to read the latest edition

Just like the pride and purpose our Elders feel when wrapped in their possum skin cloak, we want wawa biik to be a warm and inspiring space that brings people together to celebrate and learn about our traditional and contemporary aspects of Culture.

wawa biik means ‘hello Country’ which proudly acknowledges our continuous connections, relationships, and responsibilities we have and will always have to Taungurung Country as the First People and Custodians of this land. But you too have a responsibility to biik and can do your bit to strengthen culture – and it all starts with saying wawa to Country, with us.

Our newsletters will give you a sense of our purpose, introduce you to our Country, our inspiring People and our Partners, and invite you to take further steps to deepen your relationship with Country and Culture.

These are exciting times. Ngun godjin (thank you) for coming on this journey with us!

Current: Yarning Together

May newsletter now out! Head to our bio. 

In this edition, we unpack the how and why of cultural heritage protection. We yarn with Taungurung Elders and youth who have experienced the pride of being out in the field unearthing cultural artefacts but who are equally as passionate about walking Country with the wider community to educate about cultural values and the Taungurung story. We hope that their insights spark some reflection and consideration of the role we all must play in ‘winganggath daatba’.
As a Taungurung Elder who has worked for his mob for two decades doing cultural surveys, Uncle Shane could probably write a book about what he’s seen and experienced out there in the field. Take a look as we yarn with Uncle Shane on all things Cultural Heritage and how you might be able to help. Link in bio
