ABOUT GMTOAC
Gunditj Mirring Traditional Owners Aboriginal Corporation RNTBC (GMTOAC) was established by the Gunditjmara in 2005 asserting Sovereignty to continue connection to, care and protect Gunditjmara Country and to progress rights and interests in cultural identity, social justice, native title, cultural heritage and land justice for Gunditjmara Country and its peoples. Through GMTOAC, Gunditjmara people ensure that our cultural obligations and responsibilities which arise from Gunditjmara Country. Under Gunditjmara lore/law, custom and beliefs are upheld and recognised for the protection and benefit of traditional lands and waters and to show respect to Gunditjmara Ancestors and Elders.
GMTOAC maintains a strong connection between the Gunditjmara Native Title holders, Gunditjmara Country and staff who are a conduit protecting, progressing and documenting the continuing culture, traditions, language, crafts and practices of the Gunditjmara. The organisation is a not-for-profit organisation with a commercial subsidiary company, Gunditj Mirring Services T/as Budj Bim Cultural Landscape Tourism (BBCLT). The organisation is responsible to its members, the Native Title holders of the Gunditjmara Country in Southwest Victoria.
The United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organisation World Heritage listing of the Budj Bim Cultural Landscape (BBCL) in July 2019 has consolidated opportunities for GMTOAC to manage significant Gunditjmara Country and share it with the world through tourism enterprises. Alongside recognition of other GMTOAC programs, the World Heritage listing has elevated an already unique work experience on Gunditjmara Country, bringing global potential and responsibilities. Gunditjmara Country is a unique place with universal heritage values. The cultural landscape demonstrates how Gunditjmara worked with the natural resources and environment of the Victorian Southwest region to establish a permanent infrastructure of human society over the past 30,000 years and beyond. With the increased exposure of this World Heritage site, it has allowed GMTOAC to rapidly expand with future growth and strong management needed to ensure the opportunities are utilised for the benefit of the community.
