- Terri Janke weaves her own personal story in with her reasons for ethical collaborations between Indigenous communities and researchers. Indigenous people hold knowledge that can be used for improving the planet and building sustainable economic opportunities. By engaging respectfully with Indigenous people, scientists and creative collaborators can potentially eradicate Indigenous people’s poverty, which stands at 15% of the world’s population.
Terri Janke was born in Cairns and has family connections to the Torres Strait Islands (Meriam) and Cape York (Wuthathi). She was awarded NAIDOC Person of the Year 2011, the Attorney General’s Indigenous Lawyer of the Year 2012, and was a finalist in the 2015 NSW Telstra Business Women’s Awards.
Terri is the Solicitor Director of Terri Janke and Company, a commercial law firm. She is an international authority on Indigenous Cultural and Intellectual Property (ICIP) and has written the leading protocols and ICIP models in the film, arts and museum and archival sector. She is valued mentor, an advocate for Indigenous rights, an accredited mediator and governance expert.

Your 8-year-old self would be incredibly proud of what she was to become. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures are a global treasure that should be held in high esteem and protected for the sake of all our futures. You are an inspirational, passionate speaker for your people and your culture. Amazing work!
@Kapt'n Pee you have lots of words, but meaningless.
If you understand weather patterns, you’d see Australia is in the dry zone. Did Aboriginal people drag the country into this position on the globe?
And you just ignored the whole video here and rambled on about something different.
Next time listen to,the video and you might learn something.
Looks like Kapt’n Pee removed their comment, so now my comment above has no context. Oh well,
"Don't worry. You stay on track. You keep your tracks true. And people will follow."
Beautiful and inspiring words we all need right now. Thank you.
Indigenous wisdom and culture is slowly reaching our minds .. one day our hearts.
Thank you for sharing this story. I was first noticing this issue as a gypsy decendant child in the Netherlands. And later through friendships with activists of the American Indian Movement and people like the Aboriginals Joe Gaia, Pat Torres, Yanawirri Yparka and others whom I had stay in my house for to a short time in the Netherlands. Later when teaching Chinese medicine in Mexico I got introduced with Otomi and Aztec tribesmen and they were looking for a schooling system for supporting indiginous people`s wisdom in accord with their own principles. To find recognition on the basis of their own values. So what I did for prospecting students is to generate a questionnaire on which basis they could write a Master Thesis in comparative science to show what are the key points they think should defend their cultural science as a manifest for indigenous culture for future generations. Unfortunately I have never been able to present it, but I think the idea is good. As a non authentic practitioner of an indigenous science I think we have a moral obligation to the sourcing culture not to colonize it but to learn things in the way they were intended and thus adapt culturally and not assimilate.
Thank you Terri for sharing this inspiring and beautiful talk with us. I would love to see the Aboriginal people involved or in charge in the kakadu plum industry.
Thank you Terri. You are amazing and the way forward.
Great! - It is still hard for indigenous Australians to get their rights. - I appreciate your culture! The global world needs you more than expected!
Wtf are you talking about
They have more rights now than ANY OTHER AUSTRALIAN. Most of the indigenous community wouldn’t be able to handle ACTUAL equal rights
Beautiful, thank you for sharing.
This talk brought me to tears. Beautiful, inspiring, empowering. Xx
Inspirational! Thank you.
Great talk, thanks Terri.
Beautiful and Honest
The Cultural Crusader from the 'Cape' (Wuthathi)... I loved this talk. She should be proud of the important work she is doing. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Culture and Knowledge is very precious, and the rightful owners should be acknowledged and respected like you would a national treasure.

It took a sec for me to get it, but I think her main point is collaboration without infringement. Am I right?
Russia has 190 different indigenous types and they all thrive in harmony … no one is given special treatment
Culture should be shared stop segregating
I'm very proud of Terri and her way in this hostile environment. She's a real hero. And I loved the photo of her in a hat:) Still, I don't understand so many things. May be it's because I live in another country and judge everything from my perspective using rules that exist here. But still, many things seem really weird.
First, her school. The teacher put all indigenous children to a remedial class without any testing, the headmaster didn't pay attention to that, and the local division of the Ministry of Education didn't even know, I think. If parents had reported about that violation to the police or the Prosecutor's Office, all of those people, including education officials, would have lost their jobs. Why did they risk so much? Wasn't it easier to comply with the rules and test all children (both native and non-native, as rules required)? The rules haven't changed for ages, and in 1970s most of them were the same as now.
Secondly, I don't understand the parents' council of the school (where all parents participated, I'm sure). They knew about the formation of a remedial class without prior testing and did nothing! They knew that something unfair was being done to their children, still they kept silent, they didn't even ask the teacher, i think. Their children's education was at stake, and they didn't react! Were they mad?
Thirdly, I don't understand the judge. If he thought that Terri was a convict, he hadn't studied the case. Because if he had, he would have seen photos of convicts. If he couldn't cope with his job, why was he paid money for it? Why wasn't he fined?
Fourth, I completely don't understand indigenous people. If they have valuable knowledge, why not to go to the uni, get a degree, describe their knowledge in books and teach it to other people? Every university would be glad to have professors with unique knowledge, so why not to use that situation? Is higher academic education paid for everybody there?
If you were born here in Australia you are a native to this country.
Now for those claiming its only aboriginals… *So…* *you don’t consider Australian aborigines to be human?* *wow that’s abit harsh*
Either aborigines are not ‘indigenous’ to Australia and their ancestors travelled to this continent just like every one else or they’re are ‘indigenous’ to Australia but not homosapians.
OR EVERYONE BORN HERE IS NATIVE
I'm an Australian Native 😉
The internet 🤣 pup
My land too
Coolstool Games No not your land
@@australianoriginal1321 Australia is not just a piece of land.
Australia is a nation, we have a thriving economy, our own currency, we have central government, a defence force and are recognized internationally by other nations that we trade with, this is what makes Australia.
Before the arrival of Europeans this land was divided into many insular groups, no legal system, or army, they shared no common language, conducted no trade and had no common goal.
There was no "Australia" just a patch of land the Europeans made it into a nation.
When you claim a welfare payment it clearly states that you must be an Australian citizen to claim for payment.
It seems a large percentage of your people (over 70%) who claim payments have conceded the sovereignty of the Australian nation.
You don't get to choose what you take from society you are either a part of the whole or not.
You don't get to claim the white mans dole check then say it's " your land " because that would mean you aren't entitled to " our welfare ", "our hospitals", "our roads"...schools, railways, airports, harbours, shops, metals, farmed food, cars or any of the other western convienences you take for granted every day.
@@australianoriginal1321 do you know that a "warrior" was someone who was a professional soldier.
By definition there is no such thing as an aboriginal warrior your people were hunters they had no armies, no soldiers....just hunters talking themselves up.
@@warwicklewis8735 It is shame that you have such potential for deep thought and yet you travel a path of thorns.
@@warwicklewis8735 you got no idea about Australian history do ya. Many words but saying Nothing. And just to be clear, I’m responding to a post 1 year old.
2:02 mistook you for the defendant? What? That's discrimination right there
Unfortunately I think the Hopi prophecy is true and that civilized man will be dealt with in this fourth world by creation as we were in the last three hopefully the 5th will be better
Torres strait islanders are not a race they are New Guinea people and torres strait is named by a Spanish explorer
Correction Mr. Wallace. Torres Strait Islander people migrated from the South Sea Islands the same time Maori people explored the South Pacific. Aboriginal ancestors in far north Queensland were trackers for the Spanish and the French who were fighting against the british and later assimilated into Aboriginal life. This is not taught in the old british curriculum and in no way do I find that boring
Torres strait islanders are not indigenous too Australia i dont like the term Aboriginal/Islanders this is Aboriginal land Not Torres strait islanders
very true Darryl, with you there bruz!
Never was their land, deal with it!
BORING!!!!!
