Victor Garlngarr and Barbara Gurwalwal: caring for country in the Warddeken Indigenous protected area

Victor Balang Garlngarr and Barbara Wamudjan Gurwalwal were born in western Arnhem Land and have lived there for most of their lives. They grew up predominantly in outstations around the Aboriginal towns of Kunbarllanjnja (Oenpelli) and Maningrida. In 2002 Victor and others were invited by the late Wamud Namok AO to help establish the Manwurrk Rangers and Warddeken Land Management Limited, based at Kabulwarnamyo outstation on the Arnhem Plateau.
