The Mulka Project is a Yolngu Aboriginal multimedia archive and production centre in Yirrkala, northeast Arnhem Land, Australia. Ever since Yirrkala was founded as a mission station in 1935 on the edge of Yirrkala creek, outsiders have visited and taken film, audio and still images of Yolngu People, and taken these away to museum, academic and personal collections or produced them as documentaries or feature films. Launched on 3 August 2007, the Mulka Project is here in Yirrkala for two reasons; 1) to get back all the film, sound and images we can into a digital library accessible to the community and 2) to train the current generations of Yolngu to be creative and employable multimedia professionals who tell their own stories for themselves.

This page will be good practice for the staff and a good chance to share our work. We're going to put up... whatever we feel like sharing at the moment, new and old.
The staff of the Mulka Project currently includes director Wukun Wanambi, coordinator Randin Graves, three senior Yolngu and seven younger trainees. Hopefully you will get to know us all through this site soon.
