Sustainable Finances

Traditional Owners aim to look after their intact Country for their benefit and for the benefit of all Australians and the world. WGAC receives assistance from the Australian Government through the Indigenous Protected Area and Working on Country Programs, and from Bush Heritage Australia, however, much of this funding is currently focused on work in the terrestrial environment.

We need to invest in our people to help us achieve our vision over the next ten years, to secure sustainable livelihoods on and from our country for Wunambal Gaambera people.

The introduction of our Uunguu Visitor Pass has contributed to a sustainable tourism industry on Wunambal Gaambera Country, with funds generated from the UVP used to sustain our tourism operations and training.

WGAC’s Right Way Fire operations and trading of ACCUs in the private sector are contributing to a sustainable future for funding our fire operations.
