Statement of Cultural Significance We acknowledge the Ngunnawal people as Canberra’s first inhabitants and traditional custodians of the ACT and Region. We recognise the special relationship and connection to country that the Ngunnawal people have with this area since time immemorial. Ngunnawal were a thriving community whose cultural practices were and still are core to their physical, social and spiritual wellbeing encompassing all aspects of their livelihoods, cultural practices and families. The Ngunnawal Nation includes seven clans which bear resemblance to some of the place names across the ACT and region. These place names reflect some of the clan groups of the Ngunnawal Nation. For example clans such as Maloongoola known as Molonglo, the Biyaligee known as Pialligo, the Namitch or Namwitch known as Namadgi, Cumbeyan known as Queanbeyan, the Toogoranoongh known as Tuggeranong. There is also the clans Woolobaloah and the Ganberra that lived in the Belconnen area. Kanberri in location was central to the seven clans and the word Canberra comes from the word Kanberri, meaning meeting place. There are many significant cultural sites around the ACT. These include Kanberri/Belconnen in close proximity to Ginninderra Creek which holds significant cultural relevance in social, spiritual, and historical contexts for the Ngunnawal people. It is recognised in this place through their knowledge, Song Lines, Ceremonial Areas, Corroborees, Women’s Business, the Wedgetail Eagle and pathways that connect community. This statement has been prepared by MurriMatters in consultation with Ngunnawal representatives in February 2021.

Whilst the people of Belconnen are undoubtedly
proud of their town centre, they are also aware that
it lacks many of the ingredients that make places
great.
The land release sites are seen as an important
catalyst to reinvigorate and establish best-practice

The following vision and themes capture the
community values in relation to the urban

new development in Belconnen.

Community Place Aspirations Plan
Finally, a Community Place Aspirations Plan for each site illustrates the opportunities for how development
can improve places for people through on-site and off-site place improvements.
These plans also include ‘Day in the Life’ User Experience notes identifying how people see themselves
experiencing places within and around the sites. (These have been derived from an exercise undertaken with
community members during the Co-design phase).
Ongoing Community Participation
In addition to responding to the desired urban experience, there is an expectation from the community for
the developer to demonstrate accountability in the delivery of the outcomes.
This includes:
• Providing a post-tender presentation of the successful tender concept to the community with reference
to the Place Design Brief.
• Providing a post-occupancy statement to the community with reference to the Place Design Brief.
• Undertaking a consultation process with Ngunnawal stakeholders to ascertain how this development
could further share their traditional knowledge with all members of the local community. This
conversation will further initiate how a series of self-determination strategies can be created to increase
empowerment, sustainability, and knowledge sharing.

The public realm interface is the transition between
the public space, such as a street, and the private

The public realm interface is the transition between
