Respect & Protocols

Respect is an important part of our Culture. Elders are our living archives and their cultural knowledge is what keeps our culture alive. Observance of protocols ensures that we are all treating others appropriately.

Respect and Protocol is doing things the right way.

It's like welcoming you into our house.

Welcome to the Yuin Digital Keeping Place. This website is intended to record and share information on events and people that have impacted on Yuin history, language and lifestyle. Over the coming years, we plan to keep improving and updating this website so that it can include an even wider and richer collection of stories from Yuin Families. We, the Yuin DKP Project Working Group, understand that language is living, and acknowledge that different spellings have been used throughout history. For this project, we've agreed to use the language spellings Dhurga, Djiringandj, and Dhawa. We invite the Yuin and wider community to explore and learn from this Digital Keeping Place.
