Today ARDS and Yolŋu Radio staff went to look at Yolŋu medicine plants, like munydjutj, ḏingu and other medicine and food, and plants we use to make baskets and spears. We are putting this really good information into a book because it’s very important for younger generations to learn about it. We walked up and down the coast near Darwin Museum, studying and teaching ARDS Balanda staff. And here are some photos.
