Dharug Custodian Aboriginal Corporation

Cultural Heritage conservation s one of our priorities. We have been working with consultants for many years within Dharug boundaries; the Dharug Custodian Aboriginal Corporation volunteered on site for many years to enable Aboriginal people’s involvement in the cultural heritage of our sites in this area. Our Elders protested for many years for our involvement and input into the care of our places.

Bayala

The Bayala Aboriginal Corporation is committed to the revitalisation of the Dharug Dhalang language. We invite the Dharug community, allies (ngalaya), and the broader community to join us on this journey of language reclamation.
