Wadeye Culture

Under Thamarrurr, all land owning groups have traditional rights and responsibilities over their land. Some families ancestral homelands are hundreds of kilometres away and it can be difficult for them to pass knowledge on to the next generation. Having a dedicated space in the centre of Wadeye will give all clan groups sovereignty of their own unique cultures, a place to celebrate who they are and where they come from. It would strengthen connection to culture, increase pride and empowerment across generations while giving peace of mind to the old people.
