Barrbunin Beek Aboriginal Gathering Place

The Barrbunin Beek (“Happy Place” in Woi-wurrung) Aboriginal Gathering Place is a dedicated community hub for local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

It was founded initially by the Banyule Community Health Service around 2010 and came under management of an Aboriginal Committee of Management with support from Banyule council in 2021.

Our Committee of Management is working tirelessly to achieve the goal of becoming a fully independent Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisation, which implicitly recognises the strength, expertise and right to self-determination by Indigenous communities.
