Caring for Country

Our third and final event, Durumbura Dhurabang Stakeholders Day, was held at Macquarie University, on 10th December, 2024.

Our second Stakeholder event, held at Macquarie University, on 10th October, 2024, attracted around 60 attendees as news got around that we were building something important as a Caring for Country initiative. Workshop participants identified key obstacles to the ecological restoration of the Durumbura Dhurabang (Lane-Cove River), as well as opportunities going forward.

The Durumbura Dhurabang project is a recent Dharug-led initiative aiming to return traditional custodial ontologies, knowledges, language and practices to what is commonly known as the Lane Cove River catchment, in respectful alliance with existing river stakeholders.
