Honoured and Ignored: Mrs Eileen Kampakuta Brown: Senior Cultural Woman
from the newswire:
On Australia Day 2003 Eileen Kampakuta Brown, a senior
Yankunytjatjara/Antikarinya woman and member of the Kupa Piti Kungka Tjuta
from Coober Pedy, South Australia, was awarded an Order of Australia. This
coincides with the release, late last week, of the final Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) for a radioactive waste repository in South
Australia, a project that Mrs Brown has strongly opposed for over ten
years.[Full Story]
