Front Cover: ‘Tjukurpa of Uluru’ © Malya Teamay: The painting depicts the important stories of Uluru. Uluru is represented in the centre of the painting by concentric circles. The different shades of colour surrounding Uluru show the different land and vegetation, which is all Tjukurpa, crossed by these ancestral beings on their journeys to Uluru. The ancestral beings (Tjukuritja) represented in this painting are: Kuniya the Python Woman with her eggs; Liru, the poisonous snake; Kurpany, the doglike creature represented by the pawprints; and Mala the rufous hare-wallaby represented by the wallaby tracks. The footprints and spears represent the warriors of the Warmala revenge party. Board of Management Vision The Uluru–Kata Tjuta landscape is and will always be a significant place of knowledge and learning. All the plants, animals, rocks, and waterholes contain important information about life and living here now and for all time. Anangu grandparents and grandchildren will always gain their knowledge from this landscape. They will live in it in the proper way. This is Tjukurpa. The special natural and cultural features of this area, which have placed it on the World Heritage List, will be protected. Its importance as a sacred place and a national symbol will be reflected in a high standard of management. This will be achieved through joint management of Uluru–Kata Tjuta National Park where Anangu and Piranpa will work together as equals, exchanging knowledge about our different cultural values and processes and their application. Together we will apply Anangu Tjukurpa and practice and relevant Piranpa knowledge to: • keep Tjukurpa strong • look after the health of country and community • help Uluru–Kata Tjuta National Park to become known as a place of learning, knowledge, and understanding about culture, country and custom • ensure a strong future for Anangu in the management of the park and ensure Anangu benefit from the existence of the park • protect World Heritage natural and cultural environments of the park in harmony with Australian social and economic aspirations. We would like all visitors and people with an interest in this place to learn about this land from those who have its knowledge. We would like you to respect this knowledge, behave in a proper way, enjoy your visit, and return safely to your homes and families to share the knowledge you have gained. Uluru–Kata Tjuta Board of Management Board of Management Vision i Foreword The Aboriginal traditional owners of Uluru–Kata Tjuta National Park (Nguraritja) have looked after, and in turn been looked after by, the land for over one thousand generations. Aboriginal use of the land over that time is reflected throughout the Uluru–Kata Tjuta landscape, which is recognised as a World Heritage area of outstanding universal value. Many places in the park are of enormous spiritual and cultural importance to Nguraritja. The park also contains features such as Uluru and Kata Tjuta which have become major symbols of Australia. Joint management brings together cultural and scientific knowledge and experience, different governance processes, and interweaves two law systems – Piranpa law and Tjukurpa. Working together means learning from each other, respecting each other’s cultures and finding innovative ways to bring together different ways of seeing and interpreting the landscape and its people. Nguraritja and Parks Australia share decision-making for the management of Uluru–Kata Tjuta National Park. This plan will set out how this cultural landscape and iconic national park will be managed for the next 10 years. It embraces the challenges, builds on lessons learnt, and above all recognises the good will of the joint management partners to continue the journey together. Uluru–Kata Tjuta Board of Management Acknowledgments The Director of National Parks and the Uluru–Kata Tjuta Board of Management are grateful to the many individuals and organisations who contributed to this management plan. In particular they acknowledge Anangu, Parks Australia staff, the Central Land Council, and the Northern Territory and Australian Government agencies that provided information and assistance or submitted comments that contributed to the development of this management plan. ii Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park Management Plan 2010–2020 Contents Board of Management Vision i Foreword ii Acknowledgments ii A description of Uluru–Kata Tjuta National Park 1 Introduction 2 The values of the park 2 Cultural values 2 Natural values 11 History of the park 12 Establishment of the park 14 Joint management 14 National and international significance 15 Management Plan for Uluru–Kata Tjuta National Park 19 Part 1 Introduction 20 1.

  • Modernist Sculpture Parks and Their Ideological Contexts— on the Basis of the Oeuvres by Gustav Vigeland, Bernhard Hoetger and Einar Jónsson
    47 (4/2017), pp. 143–169 The Polish Journal DOI: 10.19205/47.17.8 of Aesthetics Małgorzata Stępnik* Modernist Sculpture Parks and Their Ideological Contexts— On the Basis of the Oeuvres by Gustav Vigeland, Bernhard Hoetger and Einar Jónsson Abstract The purpose of this article is to explore the ideological contexts of sculptural works by Northern modernists: Gustav Vigeland (1869–1943) from Norway, Bernhard Hoetger (1874–1949) from Germany, and the Icelander Einar Jónsson (1874–1954). The original iconographies of the Vigelandsanlegget in Oslo, Hoetger’s Platanenhein in Darmstadt, as well as Jónsson’s oeuvres collected in Reykjavik, will be interpreted in relation to wider discourses—i.e. Nietzschean influence, a particular taste for the esoteric (theosophy) and, last but not least, a noticeable aversion to classical form. Keywords early Nordic modernism, sculpture parks Anguish! Anguish! I am o’erwhelmed by heavenly visions and greatness of worlds by the motley whirl of the living. Myriad—voices the All rushes on me, confuses with thick-crowding visions— that I, who should in the midst of the zenith sit like immovable eye, solitary, am whirl’d on myself, like a mote among motes.

The Norwegian Poet, trans. I. Grön- dahl, London 1919, p. 26. 144 Małgorzata Stępnik __________________________________________________________________________________________________ The suggestive image of “the motley whirl of the living” that appears in the motto—taken from an ode written by Henrik Wergeland, a notable Norwe- gian poet—evokes numerous associations.

    Report NR005 2017 Centring Anangu Voices A research project exploring how Nyangatjatjara College might better strengthen Anangu aspirations through education Sam Osborne John Guenther Lorraine King Karina Lester Sandra Ken Rose Lester Cen Centring Anangu Voices A research project exploring how Nyangatjatjara College might better strengthen Anangu aspirations through education. December 2017 Research conducted by Ninti One Ltd in conjunction with Nyangatjatjara College Dr Sam Osborne, Dr John Guenther, Lorraine King, Karina Lester, Sandra Ken, Rose Lester 1 Executive Summary Since 2011, Nyangatjatjara College has conducted a series of student and community interviews aimed at providing feedback to the school regarding student experiences and their future aspirations. These narratives have developed significantly over the last seven years and this study, a broader research piece, highlights a shift from expressions of social and economic uncertainty to narratives that are more explicit in articulating clear directions for the future. These include: • A strong expectation that education should engage young people in training and work experiences as a pathway to employment in the community • Strong and consistent articulation of the importance of intergenerational engagement to 1. Ground young people in their stories, identity, language and culture 2. Encourage young people to remain focussed on positive and productive pathways through mentoring 3. Prepare young people for work in fields such as ranger work and cultural tourism • Utilise a three community approach to semi-residential boarding using the Yulara facilities to provide access to expert instruction through intensive delivery models • Metropolitan boarding programs have realised patchy outcomes for students and families. The benefits of these experiences need to be built on through realistic planning for students who inevitably return (between 3 weeks and 18 months from commencement).

  • Appendix a (PDF 85KB)
    A Appendix A: Committee visits to remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait communities As part of the Committee’s inquiry into remote Indigenous community stores the Committee visited seventeen communities, all of which had a distinctive culture, history and identity. The Committee began its community visits on 30 March 2009 travelling to the Torres Strait and the Cape York Peninsula in Queensland over four days. In late April the Committee visited communities in Central Australia over a three day period. Final consultations were held in Broome, Darwin and various remote regions in the Northern Territory including North West Arnhem Land. These visits took place in July over a five day period. At each location the Committee held a public meeting followed by an open forum. These meetings demonstrated to the Committee the importance of the store in remote community life. The Committee appreciated the generous hospitality and evidence provided to the Committee by traditional owners and elders, clans and families in all the remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait communities visited during the inquiry. The Committee would also like to thank everyone who assisted with the administrative organisation of the Committee’s community visits including ICC managers, Torres Strait Councils, Government Business Managers and many others within the communities. A brief synopsis of each community visit is set out below.1 1 Where population figures are given, these are taken from a range of sources including 2006 Census data and Grants Commission figures. 158 EVERYBODY’S BUSINESS Torres Strait Islands The Torres Strait Islands (TSI), traditionally called Zenadth Kes, comprise 274 small islands in an area of 48 000 square kilometres (kms), from the tip of Cape York north to Papua New Guinea and Indonesia.

  • Longitude 131° | an Introduction Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park at a Glance
    Longitude 131° | An Introduction Timeless and enriching, Baillie Lodges’ Longitude 131° offers guests immersion in the World Heritage listed wilderness of Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, complete with earthy luxury and private views of Uluru (Ayers Rock). Since initially opening under Voyages management in June 2002, Longitude 131° has attracted widespread international and domestic acclaim. It was one of the first developments approved under the Commonwealth Environment Protection & Biodiversity Conservation Act and has established world best practices that ecotourism operators around the world now strive to match. Longitude 131° was approved following extensive consultations with the Central Land Council and Aboriginal Areas Protection Authority that included cultural mapping studies to confirm there were no sacred sites in the area. In depth flora and fauna surveys were also undertaken to protect vulnerable species such as the Mulgara (a small native marsupial), the Great Desert Skink and the Marsupial Mole. Devastated by bushfires in October 2003, the property was re-built with meticulous attention to detail. In particular, the use and transport of prefabricated structures and light-weight machinery minimised impacts on the delicate ecology, which was in a vital stage of regeneration. Longitude 131° is arguably one of the finest and most exclusive luxury wilderness camps in the world, offering discerning travellers an experience unlike any other in Australia. It is also accredited as ‘Advanced ecoCERTIFIED’ under Ecotourism Australia’s internationally recognised certification program. Longitude 131° joined the Baillie Lodges portfolio of luxury lodges in 2013, as a sister to Capella Lodge, Lord Howe Island and Southern Ocean Lodge, Kangaroo Island.
