Nyangumarta rangers share their story in film

Each year the Nyangumarta rangers produce a ‘performance story’ to show the progress made during the year. The story can use any type of media, provided it describes the achievements, and sometimes the challenges, of the reporting period. For 2019, the rangers have chosen to produce a short video about their activities. It also includes reflections from Elders and shows the growth of the Nyangumarta Indigenous Protected Area and Ranger program.

It has taken two decades of perseverance and commitment by the Yinggarda, Baiyungu and Thalanyji people to reach today’s determination. The journey to this milestone began 22 years ago, when the first initial claim for people who form the Gnulli claim was lodged on 14 April, 1997.
