Kalkarindji / Daguragu Business Directory

1 About Kalkarindji and DaguraguKalkarindji (formerly Wave Hill, also spelt Kalkaringi) is a small township in Northern Territory, located on the Buntine Highway approximately 460km southwest of Katherine. Daguragu is located approximately 8km northwest of Kalkarindji, adjacent to Wattie Creek.

Kalkarindji and the nearby settlement of Daguragu are the population centres of the land formerly held under the Wave Hill Cattle Station. In 1966, the Indigenous station workers, led by Vincent Lingiari, staged a walk-off in protest against oppressive labour practices. Following this, much of the land was returned to the Gurindji people by the station owners and the Australian Government in 1975.

Daguragu is famous for helping to pave the way for Indigenous land rights in Australia. Kalkarindji and Daguragu are on the traditional homelands of the Gurindji people, and these communities are linked to the Malgnin, Mudpurra, Bilinara, Ngarinman and Warlpiri peoples.

The community currently supports a number of successful business enterprises, including a meat works, store and caravan park. The community is well-serviced in relation to government services and infrastructure, including access to health, education, and utilities. Permits are not required to visit.

1.1 Population In the 2016 Census, there were approximately 567 people, 334 people in Kalkarindji in which Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people made up 85% of the population and 233 Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people in Daguragu.

1.6 Land tenureThe Wave Hill walk-off had paved the way for the NT Land Rights Act which became law in 1975. In the same year the Gurindji people bought the pastoral lease. After the Northern Territory Government threatened to resume the lease, the Gurindji lodged a land rights claim. In 1986 they gained freehold title to the waterhole on Wattie Creek Daguragu.

May 2014 saw the Federal Court make determination of Native Title over the Township of Kalkarindji in favour of Traditional Owners. Gurindji Aboriginal Corporation is the Prescribed Body Corporate. In partnership with the Northern Territory Government new housing and commercial blocks have been created to reduce overcrowding and support economic growth through the Kalkarindji Land Subdivision.

1.6.1 Kalkarindji

Kalkarindji consists of a mix of freehold and leasehold land and is not under the Aboriginal Land Rights Act (Northern Territory). There are three types of land tenure in Kalkarindji:

Vacant Crown land Government land set aside for “Territory Housing” but no title issued; or (Crowned) Freehold title owned by the Victoria Daly Regional Council.

1.6.2 Daguragu

Daguragu is Aboriginal Freehold Land (Commonwealth Title held by Aboriginal Land Trust). The Traditional Owners have not yet agreed to a long term lease for remote community housing. The Australia Government formally withdrew its 40 year housing proposal on 13 November 2014. Northern Territory Government infrastructure leases are currently in place within Daguragu.

1.7 Planning a community visitThe Northern Territory’s remote communities are so diverse that it’s crucial to learn about them and get prepared before you visit. They range in size from large towns to very small outstations. Road conditions vary from sealed highways to rough bush tracks. Resources for visitors are limited so make sure you are organised and take what you need with you.

There are regional differences in language, culture, social structures, politics, authority of land owners and clan elders. Understanding and respect for these different ways is critical to successful work in these contexts. The NTG have put together a number of resources to help you plan a successful visit.

4 Arts and culture

4.1 Karungkarni Arts and Culture Established in 2011, Karungkarni Art Centre is located in the old powerhouse building at the entrance to Kalkarindji, Buntine Highway. The name Karungkarni refers to the Child Dreaming place for Gurindji people, a sacred site imbued with procreative powers. The powerful name Karungkarni alludes to the strong desire of the Gurindji people to pass on their artistic, cultural and historical knowledge to their children. In doing so the art centre supports the production and sale of artwork by the local artists, and preserves language through its language centre, Gurindji Jarrakap.

Karungkarni is also home to a collection of heritage memorabilia, historical photographs and archival films, which portray the history and culture of the Gurindji people. In particular, there is information about the iconic political stand against oppression and for Aboriginal land rights for which the Gurindji people are renowned: the 1966 Wave Hill Walk Off.

Artworks from Karungkarni exhibit a uniquely fine dot style of painting with rich colour. The paintings typically are based on the traditional designs of the region and include themes related to
