Wathaurong Aboriginal Co Operative
The Wathaurong Aboriginal Co-operative in Norlane, Victoria, has served the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities since 1980, offering a range of culturally appropriate services, from health and family support to cultural education and community engagement. With a focus on community wellbeing and self-determination, the organisation provides essential programs that promote strong families and connections to culture and country.
Key initiatives include health services, youth programs, and the Wathaurong Glass enterprise, which offers training and employment opportunities through Aboriginal art in glass. The co-operative also fosters cultural learning at Wurdi Youang, an important site for the Wathaurong community, while enhancing cultural connections through the Booln Booln Cultural Centre, designed to educate and engage visitors.
