Event: Keeping Aboriginal Women’s Culture Alive
Added on Wednesday, May 05, 2010

This is a rare opportunity to hear Nobel Peace Prize Nominee Dr Zohl dé Ishtar speak about the Kapululangu Elders’ efforts to protect and keep alive their women’s knowledge and cultural practices, and to build cultural resilience among their families and community. Learn about how you can partner with these remarkable women to close the gap between Indigenous and Non-Indigenous relations.

Dr Zohl dé Ishtar is internationally renowned for her work with Indigenous Australian and Pacific women over the past 25 years. Since 1999 Zohl has lived and worked with the Aboriginal Women Elders in Balgo community, Western Australia. She assisted them to establish the Kapululangu Women’s Law and Culture Centre— one of Australia’s most remote women’s centres and a flourishing and vibrant provider of Aboriginal Women’s Law and Culture in the south-east Kimberley.

Kurilpa Hall, 174 Boundary St, West End, Brisbane

RSVP preferred: contact Chris on 0437 327 890
Light refreshments may be purchased.
