Martu leader and founder Muuki Taylor wins OAM

Congrats to Martu leader and founder of KJ, Muuki Taylor, who was honoured in Queen's Birthday Honours List!

Fifteen years ago, Mr Taylor founded KJ with Sue Davenport and Peter Johnson, who were also honoured. Muuki is KJ’s senior cultural advisor and founded KJ to assist Martu to remain connected to country and culture.

"We will all work. The old people put down their words for us, so that we keep checking on and looking after our country. It’s for the future generations of children — and it’s we who must teach them. We need to teach them and show them before we leave them behind after we pass away,” says Muuki.
