Yaluk-ut Weelam

This urban adventure leads you through lost markers with Boon Wurrung elder N’arweet Carolyn Briggs. Connections between a tree, a rock, a beach are remade through Kummargii Yulendji (rising knowledge), an increasing awareness of the ways in which Indigenous knowledges are central to the regeneration of our natural environments.
