WALKABOUT CONSULTANCY:

Welcome to Walkabout On Country, where we celebrate and honour the Goreng people and their rich heritage in Goreng country.

As a proud Goreng man born in Gnowangerup, I invite you to join me Ezzard Flowers on a journey of discovery, learning and connection in the magnificent Koi Kyeunu-ruff (Stirling Ranges). Learn about the significance of Bular Mial (Bluff Knoll) and the dream time stories and song lines that connect the Goreng people to our country.

Together, let’s protect, preserve, and sustain the land, culture, and traditions that have shaped the Goreng people for generations.

Our Vision: 

To promote the understanding that Culture must be protected, preserved and sustained as a living entity. Breaking the inter-generational loss of the Cultural Domain 
by passing on sixty thousand years of continuous Cultural Knowledge of Country.
