Waybali Murruway has been a part of a revival around gathering resources, plant knowledge and skills in traditional weaving practices.
Over five years, this project has connected people across four generations and six communities; Mitta Mitta, Mutta Mutta, Ngurrungera, Wagga Wagga and Gudhamangdhuray demonstrating a capacity for cultural resilience; forgotten practices being reimagined and pride regained.
