J is strong. Old people and young people go on country
together. The young people are learning how to look after
country. Young people and children are going to waterholes and they
will learn. Its good.
In KJ, Martu and whitefellas work happily together. Martu have a lot
of knowledge. Whitefellas have other knowledge. Together, they
work well to make KJ strong and everybody is happy.
KJ is for all Martu, for everybody.
SENIOR CULTURAL
ADVISOR REPORT
KJ ANNUAL REPORT 2012 - 2013 1
T
his year was another big year for KJ and Martu with everyone
working hard together to build stronger communities and to
keep Martu culture and country strong. It has been a year when KJ
has delivered on many of its promises to Martu.
There have been many highlights that Martu should be proud
about. These are some of them:
This year 22 Martu were employed in permanent full or part-
time jobs working with KJ and another 255 were given casual
work through the year. KJ is one of if not the biggest employer of Martu in the Western
Desert.
For the frst time more than $1 million was paid to Martu in wages or fees with over 5,700
days worked. This will continue to increase next year.
KJ continued to support Martu communities with more than $415,000 being paid for rent,
diesel and other payments. This money that goes into communities helps keep them
strong for Martu.
The mens ranger teams continued to work hard looking after country. They went to
new country such as rirra (stony) country with Nyari and Ngamaru. The young men
continue to grow in confdence and are a source of great pride for families and everyone in
communities.
The womens mankarr teams continue to do important work out from Jigalong, Parnngurr
and Punmu communities. The womens teams have worked hard to look after country and
continued to monitor and test waterholes.
Late in the year, KJ was successful in securing another fve year contract with the Australian
Governments Working on Country Program. This secures the ranger program and jobs for
Martu rangers to 30 June 2018. The new contract includes a new womens ranger team.
This year also saw the return of Kalyuku Ninti (return to country) trips with a trip to Pijakarli
country and to Windy Corner. More trips are planned for next year.
The Martu Community Access Library (CAL) with the old photos and flms was rolled out to
communities. The new computers have more than 24,000 photos and work will continue
next year on identifying Martu in the photos, flms and audio.
The old people with the support of the ranger teams have been doing helicopter mapping
of waterholes. This involves fnding them again and passing on stories of those places.
The waru (fre) program has continued to grow with lots of wangka (talk) about how
important waru (fre) is to make country healthy. Helicopters are also being used for waru.
They help get the men and women to more wirrilyi (remote) places to burn to make country
healthy again.
CEO REPORT
Martu country continues to look healthier and healthier with nearly 2,500 camels being
culled either by helicopter or by the Martu rangers. By removing camels, the kapi (water) in
the waterholes is staying longer and other animals and birds have more to drink.
This year KJ did a lot to help Martu become stronger for work. KJ worked with the police to
get Martu ranger drivers licences and to increase the number of rangers on KJs corporate
frearm licence. Men rangers and mankarr teams have also been provided with training
in frst aid and 18 have passed Certifcate I in Horticulture with the assistance of Greening
Australia.
KJ also developed a Healthy Country plan that outlines what Martu think it's important to
look after, what Martu worry about and how KJ and the rangers should look after country to
keep it healthy.
In December 2012, KJ helped organise the We dont need a map exhibition at the
Fremantle Art Centre. This was a celebration of Martu looking after country and how that is
depicted in paintings.
KJ continued to make more movies highlighting the important work KJ and Martu do.
There was the Kanyirninpa Ngurrara movie and a joint movie with Fiona Walsh from CSIRO
called Handing back the past.
More people are learning about Martu and their story through KJs cultural awareness
courses to mining companies and other organisations in Newman. They provide an
important opportunity for Martu to be involved in teaching other people about Martu.
KJ ran its frst Leadership trip to Canberra late in 2012, taking nine Martu rangers to
Melbourne and Canberra to meet with government and to learn how Parliament works.
In late May, 10 Martu representatives from the men's ranger and mankarr program went
to the World Indigenous Network conference in Darwin to talk about their work with other
Indigenous organisations from around the world.
All the above would not be possible without the support of our partners and supporters
who have provided advice, energy, time and fnancial support. In particular, The Nature
Conservancy (TNC) has been working with KJ to make KJ stronger and to help Martu look
after country for the long term.
The past year has had its challenges. In particular:
One of KJs senior Jigalong rangers passed away in April. He was a founding member of
the Jigalong ranger team and helped to make it strong. He is badly missed.
The middle of the year also saw Ngangkari (Tim), Patto and their families leave KJ to head
back east although Ngangkari will stay working with KJ in a part-time capacity. Jakura
(Steve) also went home to be with his nyupa (partner). They are missed but we have been
lucky to replace two of them with new ranger coordinators. Unfortunately at 30 June we
were still looking for a ranger coordinator for Punmu. A new ranger coordinator will start in
late August 2013.
The coming year will again be busy. The KJ Board has revised the KJ Strategic Plan and wants
KJ to expand its work so that more Martu can get jobs and for all Martu country to have ranger
teams. Another priority is for KJ to establish a ranger team for nyaparu town (Newman) to
keep young Martu out of trouble and out of prison.
I want to thank both Martu and whitefellas that are involved in or work for KJ and make
KJ what it is. KJ has always been about working together and two way learning. Our staf
work incredibly hard and are committed to working with Martu and KJs goals of building
sustainable communities for the future.

KJ BOARD
T
he Board of Directors of KJ has worked
very hard this year. It has taken some
big decisions, setting up the future of KJ. The
Board has set a strategic plan for the next
three years. This will be a big period of growth
for KJ, with new funding allowing KJ to expand
its programs. The Board identifed the most
important things for KJ to do in that time.
These important things include more ranger
teams, women ranger teams, a leadership
program for rangers, diferent grades and pay
levels for rangers, a program to get young
people out of Newman and back into Martu
country and expanded work in all the areas
that KJ works in now.
The Board has adopted a Board Charter,
setting out the governance processes and
behaviours that are expected of Directors of
KJ. A Board Charter is increasingly required
by regulators. It is a good document that says
how Directors will act and speak honestly for
the good of everyone working in KJ and for all
Martu. It is now being translated into Martu
Wangka (language).
The Board also appointed Nyaparu See
as the new CEO of KJ. Peter Johnson has
stepped down from that position. There was
an Australia-wide search for a new CEO, with
many people applying and being interviewed.
The Board believed that Nyaparu See, with his
history with KJ and with Martu people, would
be the best person to help build KJ for the
future.
Finally, the Board continues to check and
make sure that everything is done right
in KJ money, contracts, legal obligations
and so on. They work hard at this, they ask
good questions and are learning all the skills
needed to be a good Director.

K
J continued to work hard to look after country for the old people.
KJs land management program includes:
Mens ranger program;
Mankarr program; and
Waru (fre) project.
Each of the above is reported on in the following pages.
A highlight of the year was the successful rebid for funding for the ranger program from
the Australian Governments Working on Country Program. This funding will enable KJ to
continue the ranger teams through to 30 June 2018.
In addition there have been a number of important activities that KJ has been working on in
the land management program.
There was a lot of work around the Jilukurru (Durba Hills) and Kaalpi (Calvert Range) area with
activities highlighting how land management and cultural work can be integrated. Discussions
continued with the rangers as to how they wanted to look after this important country in the
long term while addressing the following immediate priorities:
1. Protecting important cultural and heritage sites;
2. Reducing the impact of feral animals;
3. Establishing a second warru (rock wallaby) colony at Jilukurru with the assistance of the
Department of Parks and Wildlife Services (DPaWS formerly DEC); and
4. Reducing the risk of large hot wildfres.
Signifcant work was also done in developing a Healthy Country Plan that refected the
priorities of the ranger and mankarr teams in looking after country over the next 10 - 15 years.
LAND MANAGEMENT
PROGRAM
This planning work was funded under
the Indigenous Protected Area (IPA)
Program and The Nature Conservancy
(TNC). The work included numerous
discussions with ranger, mankarr teams
and communities, KJ staf and reviewing
information from previous planning
activities.
A number of areas have been identifed
for more detailed operational plans.
These areas include Jilukurru / Kaalpi
and the Wirnpa / Yimiri area. The
operational plans will identify the ranger
and mankarr teams' work plans for that
country.
Following development of the plans,
Martu will need to decide whether they
wish to support an IPA over some of
the Martu determination and if so, what
level of protection they wish to give it.
Many existing IPAs support mining and
other developments consistent with the
traditional owners' aspirations.
KJ continued to work closely with the
WA Department of Agriculture and Food
(DAFWA) and the Australian Feral Camel
Management Project on the control
of feral camels. Nearly 2,500 camels
were removed with another cull planned
for late in 2013. To date approximately
24,000 camels have been removed from
the Martu determination and surrounding
areas.
Next year looks like it will be bigger and
better than before with more ranger jobs,
more burning and helicopter work and
more fexibility for the women to pursue
other interests such as bush foods and
medicines.

MEN'S RANGER
PROGRAM
T
was another big year for the Ranger
Program. Ninty-two men were involved
in the Ranger Program across the three
communities - Parnngurr, Punmu and Jigalong.
This has seen a huge amount of work
undertaken on country, with people spending
in excess of 560 nights out on country,
contributing to at least 5,000 days efort when
including day trips. It has also been a year of
change with the farewell to ranger coordinators
in all three communities and welcoming new
ones.
Rangers assisted the three Kalyuku Ninti
trips, including mapping with helicopters. The
rangers travelled through country with larger
family groups reinvigorating knowledge and
accessing more and more country for the
ranger teams to manage. There has been
an important beneft of these trips, with the
rangers now having permission and instruction
frowm the owners on how to look after country.
Waterholes are continually managed by the
ranger groups with 20 additional sites being
visited and cleaned out as required. Repairs to
Hammer Bore were conducted over a number
of trips ensuring consistent water supply.
Repairs included replacement of the existing
pump, installing a hand pump and lengthening
the shaft to get to deeper water.
Waru (fre) has been a large part of ranger
work with the use of helicopters to access
country away from the tracks. Planning where
to go involves using satellite imagery to
target specifc areas of long unburnt country.
People in small teams are dropped of by the
helicopter to walk country that needs to be
made fresh, enabling more country to be burnt
away from the tracks. Burning of the tracks
has continued with approximately 100,000Ha
burnt with over 50 ignition sites.
8 KJ ANNUAL REPORT 2012 - 2013 KJ ANNUAL REPORT 2012 - 2013 9
The warru (black fanked rock wallabies) were an important focus for the Jigalong team with
seven trips out to the site to prepare for the upcoming relocation. This has involved baiting
and monitoring for feral cats, trapping and tagging warru, creating 9.5 km of fre breaks along
the Canning Stock Route (CSR) and the Jilukurru access roads and transporting fuel for use by
the helicopter.
Camels cause devastating efects to country and have been controlled for a number of years
now. As rangers travel through country they can see that the country is looking healthy as
a result of fewer camels. The rangers participated in surveys with scientists to assess the
impacts of camels grazing on vegetation. Early anecdotal information suggests that grazing
has dramatically reduced.
Control work on bufel grass at Pinpi has continued with burning, spraying and hand weeding.
The bufel grass infestations have been mapped to include in a strategic management plan.
The rangers continued to manage tourism on the stock route by checking permits, monitoring
where tourists are going, cleaning out the toilets and giving presentations on what the rangers
have been doing out on country. Assistance was also given to tourists in trouble including a
couple whose vehicle and caravan was found bogged near Georgia Bore. The recovery of this
vehicle took a whole day and involved a great team efort. It got the tourists out of trouble and
allowed them to continue their trip that they had been planning for ten years.
Rangers have continually supported the community schools, undertaking eight joint trips
with the schools, in support of the school holiday program or the student exchange program
running at Jigalong. This is a really important part of the ranger work as the kids see their dads
working as rangers.
Training was undertaken in four wheel driving including recovery and maintenance; wildfre
awareness and personal safety; safe handling of 1080 baits; and conservation and land
management certifcates 1 and 2.
The ranger teams have also been involved in helping their communities. Work has included
cleaning up after Cyclone Rusty, assisting in establishing the Womens Centre with building
and gardening, providing support for Greening Australia which included the maintenance of
existing plantings and the establishment of new plantings, cleaning up for football carnivals,
providing wood for spear making for elders in community, hosting on country trips for schools
on exchange and representing the ranger work at the Job Expo held in Jigalong.
It has been another busy year and we look forward to another year as the teams grow and
develop.

T
he Mankarr teams in Jigalong, Parnngurr and
Punmu were extremely busy with 570 days out
on country. Places visited by the teams to conduct
fauna monitoring, water monitoring and burning
include Mulunyjarra, Warnkarr, Taarl, Jutupa, Tapily,
Pinangu, Yarnkaarl, Ngarntuwanu, Jintirripalangu,
Nyakulajikujarra, Papuly, Pirrkilyi, Junipinti, Paji,
Ngujapunya, Yurltiwinti, Mantajini, Puntuwarri, Nooka
Spring, Meeka Spring, Mukanpa, Nyatjarra, Kuparna,
Pimulu, Wirnukurrujurnu, Yulpu, Nyukuwarta and
Whitegums.
The Jigalong team were excited to fnd Meeka Spring
which they had tried to reach a year earlier but had to
turn back due to rough terrain. The area was beautiful
and full of water even though it was getting late in
the season. The Parnngurr team re-found a place
called Honey Ant Claypan, which had the women
excited due to wuukarta (honey ants) that are found
underground, underneath old growth mulga stands.
One hundred and twenty four Martu have been
involved in the program with a great mix of elders
and young engaged in the work activities. A number
of younger women have joined the program and the
continued engagement of school children has enabled
more opportunities for the intergenerational transfer
of traditional knowledge. Everyone is getting stronger
in using Cybertracker, water monitoring kits and using
the sensor cameras.
The ngurra (country) is looking very healthy with many
signs of mankarr (bilby), mulyamiji (great desert skink)
and langamarlu (mulgara). Numerous threatened
species plots have been completed using Martu
tracking knowledge.
Forty-four priority sites have been revisited from
previous years, and 100 new plots have been created.
Sensor cameras have also been used to record
images and footage of threatened species.
MANKARR
PROGRAM
12 KJ ANNUAL REPORT 2012 - 2013 KJ ANNUAL REPORT 2012 - 2013 13
Forty-three waterholes were monitored and cleaned out by all three teams and as a result
there was a noticeable increase in animal and bird activity. This made the women very happy
as they recalled stories of pujiman (bushman) days and the responsibilities of caring for
country. The teams noticed a major decrease in camels in late 2012, however signs of camel
damage were being recorded again in 2013 which has resulted in discussions about the need
to continue with the camel control program.
The Mankarr program has increasingly used the womens traditional knowledge to carry
out small cool season burns. Burning has been used for multiple purposes: to break up
old clumps of spinifex, hunt for and to fatten up parnajarrpa (goanna), to encourage kipara
(bustard) to return, to increase biodiversity and bush food plants and to protect cultural sites.
This burning creates fne scale mosaic patches and makes country healthy. 3,500 hectares
were burnt protecting over 35,000 hectares of country.
The teams conducted cultural surveys at some sites recording etchings, rock art, jiwa (grinding
stones) and other artefacts from pujiman days.
At the end of 2012 a number of representatives from all three teams attended the We dont
need a map exhibition at Fremantle Arts Centre. The ladies presented at the exhibition and
shared their knowledge about tracking and bush foods as well as the work they do out in
country.
Five representatives attended the World Indigenous Network Conference in Darwin in May
where they presented on the work that women do to an audience of over 100 people from
around the world.

T
his year has been a smaller year
for waru (fre), after about half
the desert burnt in hot summer time
wildfres. This is because of the big rains
over the last few years.
Country now is looking good after the
latest rains, but rangers will be working
hard alongside other Martu, scientists
and others to try and make sure that in
the future there are fewer large wildfres.
This year Martu and KJ have been
moving forward with working with waru.
There has been some training with
DPaW (previously called DEC), and lots
of burning on country.
This year, we started to use waru maps
that showed where and how long ago
country was burnt. These maps are now
used by rangers for planning where to
visit and put more waru into the country.
The good waru work that the rangers do
each year shows up on these maps and
helps with two way learning.
The Jigalong rangers have been using
these maps to prepare the area around
Jilukurru for the warru (rock wallaby)
release later in the year. The area that
warru will be let go in is not likely to burn
unless it is very hot, and so the rangers
have been making sure the sites are
protected by burning spinifex from the
tracksides. This will keep the warru safe,
and gives them a good chance of living
at Jilukurru.
There was also a lot of wangka (talk) and planning about what we need to do
in future years to make the country healthier using waru both Martu way
and whitefella way and to reduce the risk of large hot wildfres in summer.
WARU PROJECT
16 KJ ANNUAL REPORT 2012 - 2013 KJ ANNUAL REPORT 2012 - 2013 17
M
artu rangers have asked KJ to start a leadership program, to teach them the skills that
they need to take more senior positions in the ranger program and in their communities.
They have identifed a range of skills that they want to learn.
In November 2012, a group of rangers and KJ staf went on a leadership trip to Melbourne and
Canberra. The group met with a range of government departments, particularly those that
fund KJ activities on Martu land. They made several presentations to these departments on
the work that Martu Rangers do, on Kalyuku Ninti trips and on helicopter mapping.
They also had meetings with these departments, telling people how important these programs
were and what they needed. They learned who the people are who manage the money for
these programs and how welcome they are to come and talk with them.
They also went to Parliament House. The Deputy Clerk of the Senate gave up a whole
morning to spend with the ranger leadership team and to teach them about how Parliament
works.
The leadership team said that they wanted to stay together as a team as they learn. KJ is now
trying to get funding for a long term, expanded leadership program to teach young men and
women the skills that they need to take on leadership roles. These young leaders are very
impressive people and want to work for their people.
RANGER LEADERSHIP
PROGRAM

T
his year KJ did two Kalyuku Ninti trips.
The Pijakarli people had wanted a trip
to take young people out to their country for
a long time. Finally, in May this year, this was
possible. Unfortunately, none of the Pijakarli
elders could go on the trip but a lot of
younger Pijakarli people came along. Elders
who had walked through Pijakarli country
came to show the young people Waka,
Kanu, Minyawu, Mulyatingki and Nanjapayi.
Yanjami also came to help.
For many of the young Pijakarli people,
this was the frst time they had been out to
their country. They went to some important
places and saw how beautiful their country
is. They heard from the old people how it
used to be in pujiman days. They all said
that they wanted to bring their elders back,
to bring their families back and to look after
the country.
In June, a big mob of people were taken
by Nyari back to rirra (stony) country. We
had eight Toyotas and a helicopter. The
helicopter took various people to see their
country frst the Bidu family while going
out and around Windy Corner then the
Crusoe family to the north of Windy Corner.
The country in this area looked beautiful.
Everything was very green and all the
rockholes were full to the brim. There were
marlu (kangaroo) and kipara (bustard), and
the country looked very healthy.
Nyari was accompanied by his sister, Nyapulya, from Wiluna, and her family. This was the frst
time for a very long time that they had been back in this country.
Despite some problems, like very cold, wet weather, the group was a happy one and we
covered a lot of country, travelling out along the Talawana Track to Windy Corner, down the
Eagle Highway some distance, up the Gary Highway and in to Kunawarritji.
KALYUKU NINTI
20 KJ ANNUAL REPORT 2012 - 2013 KJ ANNUAL REPORT 2012 - 2013 21
L
ast year KJ started a program of mapping yintakaja (waterholes) and other waterholes,
using a helicopter to take old people to fnd the waterholes so their locations and proper
Martu names could be recorded. Young people also go in the helicopter so that they can learn
from the old people. Photos are taken of the waterholes and, if the old people have a story to
tell about that place, this is also recorded.
All this information is kept safe by KJ on a computer so that future generations of Martu can
fnd these waterholes and go back to them to look after them. Last year the old people found
lots of waterholes around Kiriwirri and Paru, and in the country around Wikiri.
This year the helicopter was used to fnd and identify waterholes in Nyaris ngurra (country)
around Windy Corner, and a few more places in Ngamarus ngurra. Nyari took a big group of
people to Nyunturu and to Yirnangarri and showed Clifton how to fnd other waterholes in his
ngurra using the helicopter. The Crusoe family also found more waterholes in their ngurra and
Ngamaru found some more places around Wikiri.
The locations of all these waterholes have been recorded with GPS so that rangers can now
fnd these places and go and look after them, and take other people to see them. Nyari has
said that KJ must keep doing this work, so that all the old waterholes can be located and the
young people can fnd them again and look after them.
YINTAKAJA
MAPPING
22 KJ ANNUAL REPORT 2012 - 2013 KJ ANNUAL REPORT 2012 - 2013 23
W
hen KJ started, one of the things people wanted was to be able to see the old photos
of their families from pujiman (bushman) days, mission days and the early days of
the communities. KJ put a computer in every community with these old photos. But these
computers were slow and they didnt run flms or sound recordings properly. They were better
than nothing, but not ideal.
Over the last few years, KJ has been preparing a new Martu Community Access
Library (CAL) to go into every community. It is now ready and is being installed
in all the communities. This one is much better:
there are over 24,000 photos of Martu people and country, some old
and some new;
people can search for all the photos of themselves or their relatives;
the computers run flms and sound recordings well, and these have been
included;
its easy to save photos into a photo album to print;
the computers have big screens, so you can see everything properly;
the computers work properly.
There has been a lot of work by Sue Davenport, Zan King and their team to
get these computers ready. Now that we have the new database and the new
computers, it will be easy to add new photos and flms onto the computers. All
the families can enjoy looking at their families and seeing or hearing the old
people speaking.
KJ continues to give cultural awareness courses in Newman for BHP and some other mining
companies. Joshua Booth, Peter Tinker, Miriam Atkins and Desmond Taylor work with Andrew
Turk to deliver these courses. The people who come to listen to them always give very positive
feedback we often are told that these are the best cultural awareness courses people have
come to.
There are also more people asking KJ to give special cultural awareness courses to learn about
particular issues in more depth. These include people working in the health, education and
childcare areas. They want to learn more about how to work well with Martu people.
Its good that people who want to work with Martu communities understand that they need
to learn how to work well with Martu people. KJ fnds that mostly the whitefellas who come to
these courses really want to learn, are surprised about what they learn and say Why didnt we
learn about this at school? Why arent our kids learning about this at school?
People coming to cultural awareness courses have a lot of respect for Martu people.

n the year 2012/13, KJ had income of $4.6 million and spent almost all of that money on
programs for Martu. KJ's proft for the year was very small. KJs biggest program is the
Martu Ranger Program, which cost over $2.3 million in 2012/13. All of this money came from
government. The second biggest program is the Mankarr Program, which will get even bigger
next year.
KJ paid more than $1 million to Martu in wages and fees in the year 2012/13. The amount
paid to Martu has been increasing every year and will be even more next year. In addition, KJ
paid over $400,000 to Martu communities in rent and payments for fuel and supplies. So,
in total over $1.4 million was paid into Martu communities.
KJs detailed fnancial report, and the report from the auditor, will be presented at the AGM.
