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.

A place to grow – Taungurung’s biocultural resource centre on Country.

State Government support through the BushBank program – an initiative focused on biodiversity outcomes such as seed collection, nurseries, and large-scale revegetation – has enabled Taungurung to take an important step forward on and for Country.

Respect, relationships and the journey to Reconciliation – a yarn with tour operator Double Black Alpine.

Building strong relationships is essential to working respectfully with Taungurung People and progressing meaningful Reconciliation Action Plans.

Weaving a strong future for her grandchildren —we yarn with Anne Burns.

We acknowledge and pay respects to Taungurung Ancestors and Elders, past present and emerging. We continue to remain strong in culture, traditions and memories of those who have paved the way for Taungurung People and Country. We move forward proudly and thank our Ancestors for their guidance and protection throughout our journey.

The National Walk for Truth is a powerful journey from Victorian Parliament House to Parliament House, led by Travis Lovett, calling for a national truth-telling process shaped in genuine partnership with First Nations People. As part of this significant journey, the walk will travel through Taungurung Country from 21–28 April, offering a meaningful opportunity for local communities to take part.
Participants are invited to join sections of the walk in and around Seymour and Nagambie, walking together in solidarity, reflection and respect. This stretch of the journey is a chance to honour the strength, resilience and living culture of First Nations People while contributing to a broader national movement for truth, healing and change, culminating during National Reconciliation Week.

Today is International Women’s Day!

We’re taking this moment to honour the strength, resilience and excellence of deadly women across Taungurung community. Our women carry culture, guide our young ones, protect Country and hold stories that keep us grounded. Their work, both seen and unseen, shapes our communities.

Today we also recognise the achievements of women around the world who stand strong, lift others up and create change in every space they walk into.

To all the deadly women in our community and beyond: we see you, we appreciate you, and we celebrate you.

Happy International Women’s Day!

We are always so grateful for the opportunity to yarn and share Culture with our local government partners, out on Taungurung biik, where we can immerse people in our stories. Great to welcome Benalla Rural City Council Executive staff and RAP team.

After much rain, our wawa biik bus sloshed us through the mud, we had time for reflection and connection at our cultural sites, we tuned in to the diversity of wildlife around us and had positive chats led by our guides Matt and Ben.

As we`ve said before, this is not work, this is an honour!

Deadly group. Deadly day! Ngun Godjin (thank-you!). 💌
