Co-convened by Informit and CAVAL, Kummargii Yulendji Symposium is in its fourth year in 2026. Focusing on how we describe, apply and amplify First Peoples’ Knowledges, research and publications, the symposium offers a collegial forum for the Indigenisation of Australian research, libraries and publishing sectors.
Kummargii Yulendji means ‘Knowledge is rising’ in Boonwurrung, named by Professor N’arwee’t Carolyn Briggs, senior Boonwurrung Elder and academic. This title reflects the current upwelling of First Peoples’ Knowledges and research being undertaken and applied in vital contemporary contexts.
