Who they are
The Martu Wangka are an Aboriginal people living in the vast, remote areas of Australia’s Western Desert. Their identity and way of life are deeply connected to their ancestral land and the passing down of their traditions by word of mouth. Over the past few decades, many have embraced the Christian faith, weaving biblical witness into community life while preserving their rich cultural heritage in inland communities.
