FIRST KNOWLEDGES THE COLLECTION

First Knowledges: The Collection introduces Indigenous knowledge systems in vital areas, exploring their relevance to the present and the future. It brings together two distinct ways of understanding the natural world: one rooted in over 65,000 years of tradition, the other shaped by colonial perspectives. Each book is a collaboration between Indigenous and non-Indigenous writers and editors, with the series curated by Margo Ngawa Neale, former senior Indigenous curator at the National Museum of Australia. For the first time, all ten books of this bestselling series are available in a collectable box set featuring the artwork Nganampa Ngura (Our Country) by Alec Baker and Kunmanara (Peter) Mungkuri.
