Guung Butherun aims to provide a cultural assessment of waterway recovery within the Richmond River catchment in the wake of the 2022 floods.

Jagun Alliance will hold a series of workshops and events with the aim of bringing together community members and Indigenous knowledge holders to identify values and understandings of water quality and the impacts of the floods on Bundjalung Jagun (Country) and Guung (water).
