The Nulungu Research Institute is located on Yawuru land, encompassing the coastal town of Broome. Western Australian Aboriginal saltwater, river and desert language groups across the Kimberley and Aboriginal language groups of the Great Western Woodlands sustain intergenerational cultural, intellectual and social affiliations over time.

Researchers and associates of the project: Intergenerational Cultural Transfer of Indigenous Knowledges pay respect to all cultural custodians of the Aboriginal nations in which this project is situated - to past, present and emerging generations. Traditional knowledge and expertise, evident throughout the Kimberley and Great Western Woodlands – is vital to the sustainability of places, cultures and futures.
