Modern Period
Despite the Rubibi Community v State of Western Australia Native Title Case, there is significant debate, oral histories and substantial records that verify Djukun people as the traditional owners, knowledge holders and custodians of Djukun Country (Broome) Greg Campbell ethnographic and anthropological research spanning over 30 years demonstrates strong connections and relations between the Djukun and Goolarabooloo peoples. The Djukun Nation is involved in several projects, research and community engagement initiatives to revive the Djukun language, reclaim their cultural identity, preserve their history and pass down knowledge to their future generations. Filmmaker and cinematographer Cornel Ozies documents Djukun cultural heritage in the film 'Footprints'. ==Alternative names==
