Congratulations to Nyamba Buru Yawuru, who today, celebrate the 20th Anniversary Celebration of the Yawuru Native Title Determination. On 28 April 2006, Justice Ronald Merkel handed down the Federal Court decision on Guwarri Country (Town Beach), recognising the Yawuru people as the rightful native title holders of their traditional lands and waters. This affirmed that Yawuru people had maintained traditional laws and customs since sovereignty, recognising their ongoing connection to Country and rights and interests under Australian law. 📷:Photo of Yuwuru Directors wearing Rubibi anniversary shirts, courtesy of Yawuru. #Rubibi20Years #NativeTitle #Yawuru #Community #Celebration #Pride
