Our Purpose: Our People
We honour continuous connection to Country and invest in a strong, self-determined Bigambul nation.
Our Purpose is to honour, identify and occupy our continuous connection to country through ancestors and with our Elders so we can teach and grow our young people – to lay the groundwork for a sustainable and thriving Bigambul nation.
Our People
The Bigambul are an Indigenous Australian tribe living in the border region of Queensland and New South Wales. The name of this tribe is derived from the Bigambul word biga or pika which translates in English to yes.
OUR VISION is to preserve pride through cultural identity and see Bigambul people become resilient, strong and empowered through leadership, knowledge and education that encapsulates self-determination, economic prosperity and independence.
We strive towards four key outcome objectives
- Cultural Identity
- Leadership
