Martu Values

“They have to be all together, equal these circles. They are all important. The community comes together here.”

We are Martu people. We are the Native Title holders, the Traditional Owners and Custodians of Matuwa and Kurrara Kurrara. Martu people have been looking after Country and its resources for thousands of years. When we look after Country, we are keeping our Jukurrpa (dreaming) alive and strong.

Our vision for Matuwa and Kurrara Kurrara is to make sure it remains a place where Martu law and culture is practiced and that Country is made healthier. Matuwa and Kurrara Kurrara will be managed through progressive partnerships between the Wiluna Native Title holders, the Government and the broader community. Healthy partnerships will help balance Martu and Western knowledge of land management, create economically and environmentally sustainable employment and contribute to the health and wellbeing of future Martu generations.
