Have a read of the parliamentary
enquiry, highlight three important
points and explain your choices
Answer
The PKKP (Pemulwuy Koori Knowledge Project) is an Aboriginal-led research project that aims to create a better understanding of Aboriginal knowledge and culture. It focuses on the history, culture, and language of the Koori people of Australia. The PKKP overlooks the importance of Aboriginal knowledge and culture in the development of contemporary Australia, and is involved in researching, documenting, and preserving this knowledge. Three important points highlighted by the parliamentary enquiry include: (1) the need to recognise and value Aboriginal knowledge and culture; (2) the importance of preserving and protecting Aboriginal knowledge and culture; and (3) the need to ensure that Aboriginal knowledge and culture is accessible to all Australians.
