Currie Country Social Change Aboriginal Corporation

Currie Country Social Change Aboriginal Corporation (CCSCAC) is dedicated to preserving and stewarding the precious lands, seas and waters of Bundjalung Country in northern NSW. With Groundswell’s support, CCSCAC set out to restore and revitalise two significant fish trap sites at Cabarita and Fingal Head.

Groundswell Grants

2023

10000

This grant supported Currie Country Social Change Aboriginal Corporation to protect and revitalise culturally significant water places on Bundjalung Country. When development pressures limited the planned restoration of fish trap sites at Cabarita and Fingal Head, the project shifted towards cultural education, water sovereignty and intergenerational knowledge-sharing. This work helped seed Water Wommin, a grandmother-led initiative mapping significant water sites, reviving water lore and law, and creating opportunities for girls and young people to learn on Country, while also supporting longer-term efforts to protect wetlands and sacred sites.

Wherever we are in this country, we are on Country.

We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the first inhabitants and Traditional Custodians of the lands and waters where we live, learn and work. We pay our respects to Elders past and present, and to the cultures, knowledge and stories they carry. That knowledge comes from tens of thousands of years of living with, caring for and protecting Country. It is why, for us, climate action cannot be separated from Country or from First Nations leadership, and why we are committed to listening, learning and backing First Nations-led climate action.
