The Garma Festival of Traditional Culture is a focal
point for activities of the Garma Cultural Studies Institute.
A key forum has been held at each Garma Festival
since 1999.
These forums have covered a wide range of
topics and have been attended by many highly regarded
academics from Australia and beyond. They aim to develop the profile of the Garma Cultural Studies
Institute, and to draw attention to some of the pressing
issues faced by Yolngu and other Indigenous communities.
