Cherbourg Stories – Binung Ma Na Du Project

Binung ma na du

The Binung Ma Na Du Cultural Stories and Living Histories on Wakka Wakka Country project aimed to explore the concept of codesign in creating local curriculum resources to support Aboriginal language revitalisation. 

The project team acknowledges and pays respect to the traditional owners of the lands where these stories were developed, written and filmed, the Wakka Wakka people. We thank every contributor to this project.

The research team: Associate Professor Marnee Shay (The University of Queensland), Professor Grace Sarra (Queensland University of Technology), Cr Fred Cobbo (The University of Queensland), Professor Margaret Kettle (Central Queensland University), Iris Jean Blow (The University of Queensland) and Arlene Langton (The University of Queensland). 

This project partnered with the Cherbourg Shire Council, Cherbourg State School and Murgon State High School.

The AIATSIS Indigenous Research Exchange grant funded this project.
