Join us at our Canberra Campus or online on Wednesday, 22 July, from 6pm - 7pm for the Veritas Lecture, "Waluwin Ngurambang, Waluwin Bagir-ngun, Waluwin Mayiny: Sovereign Research, Wiradyuri Women, and the Future of First Nations Health". First Nations health research in Australia has long been done by non-First Nations researchers about First Nations peoples rather than by community, homogenising diverse sovereign Nations leading to health policies, programs and practices that are structurally harmful. Waluwin Ngurambang, Waluwin Bagir-ngun, Waluwin Mayiny (Healthy Country, Healthy Women, Healthy People) is a landmark NHMRC Ideas Grant-funded research project that refuses this paradigm. Led entirely by a team of seven Wiradyuri women, grounded in Wiradyuri Nation Building methodology, and conducted on Wiradyuri Country, this project centres intergenerational women's knowledges as the foundation for developing a culturally grounded Wiradyuri health and wellbeing model.
