To help keep the fire burning this year come and join a conversation with local Cultural Fire Practitioners and hear about the practice of caring for Country with fire, here at Bundanon.
Cultural burning is a term used to describe the use of “Good Fire” by Aboriginal people to care for Country. “Good Fire” enhances the health of the Country and it’s people. After the “Bad Fire” of 2019-2020 Aboriginal fire knowledge and the use of Cultural Burning has gained more widespread appreciation.
Hosted by Cultural Liaison Manager Jerome Comisari, you’ll hear Yuin Gumea Dharawal leading fire practitioners Joel Deaves and Jordan Thomas speak about the need to change the current fire narrative from Bad Fire to Good Fire. Joining our hosts will be Uncle Nook, a Yuin Walbunja fire practitioner and mentor to emerging practitioners on the South Coast NSW.
