The Gawler Ranges Working on Country Program is a part of the National Working on Country initiative and has been managed by SA Native Title Services (SANTS) for the last seven years. It employs Gawler Ranges Native title holders as Aboriginal Rangers, as well as a Project Coordinator, to cooperatively care for that country.

The project is a partnership between Gawler Ranges Aboriginal Corporation, Department of Environment and Natural Resources and SANTS, supported by Commonwealth funding.

It’s an important program because it supports native title holders to get back on country, to care for their country, to exercise their native title rights and interests, and to gain employment working on environmental and cultural heritage.

Feral animal control is a big part of the Ranger team’s work and, according to Working on Country Senior Project Officer Adrian Stanley, that work is making a real difference.

“Yellow footed rock wallabies are on the endangered list and the rangers do animal counts. Since the park’s had a pretty intensive fox and cat control The work of the Rangers includes “It’s all granite country, beautiful red program, the number of rock wallaby supporting campers enjoying the beauty granite, and when you get out of the have built up,” he said. of the National Park. car, walk probably ten metres, you’ll find chippings where the Aboriginal Since they’ve done the fox baiting “They go to all of the campsites and just people used to chip stones together particularly, numbers have increased, check everybody’s alright.

An election for the non-Aboriginal members of the Board of Reconciliation SA were held. The results of this election saw Wendy Keech reinstated as Secretary, with newcomers Jim Maher, Brad Chilcott and Astrid Melchers filling the remaining vacancies.

Ivan Tiwu Copley was also reinstated to his position on the Board as an Aboriginal Member.
