The report aims to contribute to understanding and debate of the implications of UNESCO’s 2005 Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expression, to which Australia became a signatory in 2009. The selection of projects featured in this report was conducted jointly by representatives of the Australia Council, UNESCO Bangkok and the researchers from the Institute for Culture and Society. Projects were selected on the basis of their suitability for a ‘best practice’ case study report on the interpretation and implementation of the UNESCO Convention with a national and international readership. In-depth interviews were conducted in order to gain an understanding of multiple stakeholder perspectives on the processes and practices in question. Ethnographic material has been supported by analysis of available project documentation, other public documentation and critical writing. Since the research was conducted, many of these projects have evolved considerably. However, the detailed case studies still provide relevant material for discussion and insight on the wide range of practical possibilities to promote diversity of cultural expressions through the arts. The introduction of the report presents five key principles to advance critical discourse in this field.

The work of Rangers would be made safer if both exporting and importing countries would crack down on this odious trade. Unfortunately, it is not only illegal trade that places pressure on the environment: climate change, land clearing and habitat fragmentation, invasive species, overharvesting and pollution all play a role. For these reasons, Rangers need to be multi-skilled and adaptable. Their crucial role in protecting natural and cultural heritage is under-recognised and deserving of greater support. Despite this grim picture, there is plenty of cause for optimism.

  • Djambawa Marawili
    DJAMBAWA MARAWILI Date de naissance : 1953 Communauté artistique : Yirrkala Langue : Madarrpa Support : pigments naturels sur écorce, sculpture sur bois, gravure sur linoleum Nom de peau : Yirritja Thèmes : Yinapungapu, Yathikpa, Burrut'tji, Baru - crocodile, heron, fish, eagle, dugong Djambawa Marawili (born 1953) is an artist who has experienced mainstream success (as the winner of the 1996 Telstra National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art award Best Bark Painting Prize and as an artist represented in most major Australian institutional collections and several important overseas public and private collections) but for whom the production of art is a small part of a much bigger picture. Djambawa as a senior artist as well as sculpture and bark painting has produced linocut images and produced the first screenprint image for the Buku-Larr\gay Mulka Printspace. His principal roles are as a leader of the Madarrpa clan, a caretaker for the spiritual wellbeing of his own and other related clan’s and an activist and administrator in the interface between non-Aboriginal people and the Yol\u (Aboriginal) people of North East Arnhem Land. He is first and foremost a leader, and his art is one of the tools he uses to lead. As a participant in the production of the Barunga Statement (1988),which led to Bob Hawke’s promise of a treaty, the Royal Commission into Black Deaths in Custody and the formation of ATSIC , Djambawa drew on the sacred foundation of his people to represent the power of Yolngu and educate ‘outsiders’ in the justice of his people’s struggle for recognition.

There are many things, which are too numerous to mention about the treatment of [Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples] but through my art I have identity and strength.”— Raymond Meeks, Aboriginal visual artist.

  • Individuality, Collectivity, and Samoan Artistic Responses to Cultural Change
    The I and the We: Individuality, Collectivity, and Samoan Artistic Responses to Cultural Change April K Henderson That the Samoan sense of self is relational, based on socio-spatial rela- tionships within larger collectives, is something of a truism—a statement of such obvious apparent truth that it is taken as a given. Tui Atua Tupua Tamasese Taisi Efi, a former prime minister and current head of state of independent Sāmoa as well as an influential intellectual and essayist, has explained this Samoan relational identity: “I am not an individual; I am an integral part of the cosmos. I share divinity with my ancestors, the land, the seas and the skies. I am not an individual, because I share a ‘tofi’ (an inheritance) with my family, my village and my nation. I belong to my family and my family belongs to me. I belong to my village and my village belongs to me. I belong to my nation and my nation belongs to me. This is the essence of my sense of belonging” (Tui Atua 2003, 51). Elaborations of this relational self are consistent across the different political and geographical entities that Samoans currently inhabit. Par- ticipants in an Aotearoa/New Zealand–based project gathering Samoan perspectives on mental health similarly described “the Samoan self . as having meaning only in relationship with other people, not as an individ- ual. This self could not be separated from the ‘va’ or relational space that occurs between an individual and parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles and other extended family and community members” (Tamasese and others 2005, 303).

  • MEDIA RELEASE Musicians and Fans Love Airlie Beach
    MEDIA RELEASE For immediate release November 14, 2018 Musicians and fans love Airlie Beach “I don’t think you have to twist anyone’s arm to come to Airlie Beach, especially when they say ‘we’re going to pay you for it’, but I’d probably come here for free.” This was what Kasey Chambers had to say about the 2018 Airlie Beach Festival of Music and she wasn’t alone. Ash Grunwald described the weekend’s sixth annual event as “super fun” and Killing Heidi’s Ella Hooper said while it had been a long time between Whitsunday gigs the crowd hadn’t lost any of their spark. “The second we got on stage I felt the crowd’s energy and I thought ‘thank you Airlie Beach’,” she said. “We genuinely had an awesome time and we will come back any time you want us.” Melbourne Ska Orchestra front man Nicky Bomba, who coincidentally played drums on Killing Heidi’s hit song ‘Weir’, said aside from catching up with his musical family in a tropical paradise the highlights of this year’s festival were down to its organiser Gavin Butlin. “Big up to him because he makes the whole thing happen,” he said. “It’s a bit of an honour to play here.” Mr Butlin said 2018 had been the best festival yet. “The audiences have been great and so have the bands,” he said. “The Melbourne Ska Orchestra just lifted the roof off the tent and Killing Heidi – I’ve never seem them live before and Ella Hooper was amazing.” New for 2018 was the inaugural main stage under 18’s event ‘Kasey and the Kids’, which Mr Butlin declared a resounding success.
