It is not through catching fish that a handwoven fishing net is nourishing people, but through connection to cultural practice, knowledge and community, according to Dr Kylie Day from the Gnibi College of Indigenous Australian Peoples, and Aimee Andersen from the Centre for Teaching and Learning. The pair spoke on SCU Buzz podcast about their research project into the sustainable construction of traditional fishing nets.

'Stories behind the fishing net – sitting with the Aunties' is a Community Engaged Research Project revitalising the cultural practice of string-making to construct a traditional fishing net. The project is funded by Southern Cross University’s Centre for Children and Young People.

The musical introduction to this podcast was written and performed by Alako Myles.
