ALIVE ! - David Mowaljarai "The elders must have a Vision ... so the children can dream" Ngarinyin elder, past Australian of the Year ..... David Mowaljarlai, Ngarinyin elder, past Australian of the Year ..... David Mowaljarlai, Ngarinyin elder, past Australian of the Year Mowaljarlai's Vision was to bring the Wandjina icon & spirit to Sydney for the Olympic Games, to share it with the World .... Wandjina emerged in the opening ceremony as sacred ground was re-created by Aboriginal people through song and dance, and Cathy Freeman ignited the ancient flame in our hearts. KimberleyCommunity The Ngarinyin, Wandjina people of the Kimberley, have a particular vision for themselves and Australia. Reflecting their philosophy, they see their future as a co-cultural one; a relationship between white Australia culture and Ngarinyin culture where the two Laws walk side by side in a relationship of cooperation, sharing and mutual benefit. A synergy of interactivity between the two cultures. Ngarinyin, Wandjina people of the Kimberley Australia will become a model for other global communities ...

Vic Cherikoff http://www.cherikoff.com.au/ A fun and sacred place, where people and all beings recognize and respect integrity - and our nature - and freely express their unique identity and creativity with passion, power and love, while honouring the sovereignty of others. Richard T. O'Neill www.excelink.com.au By 2050 Australia will be a civil society. Social capital voluntary association, trust and social equity - will be seen as more important to our future than economic capital. Australia will also be a more inclusive society than it is at present. There will be a high level of community engagement in decision-making processes, particularly at the local level, with all inputs being given due consideration. This will invariably lead to better outcomes. As a consequence, Australians will have a higher level of trust amongst themselves and with their decision-making institutions than at any time in the past.
