Abstract: The Garma Festival 2008 Key Forum marks the 10th anniversary of Garma, now the most enduring platform of cross-cultural understanding, information, and reconciliation of ideas and practices between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in Australia. The spirit of Garma and its Key Forum has survived changes of government, opposing ideologies, radical policy developments, and institutional change and this is reflected in the unfolding direction of the theme at the Garma Key Forum at Gulkula, north east Arnhem Land 2008. This report outlines the backdrop and the process of the Indigenous cultural framework formed by the theme: Indigenous Knowledge: Caring for Culture and Country. The Key Forum report aims to highlight the significance of the issues, themes, and accomplishments amplified by the participants involved in outlining the proceedings and resetting the agenda in Indigenous cultural affairs for the future.
