The closure of the Uluru climb takes effect

← Back to Dashboard
📅 26 October 2019 📍 Australia

The permanent closure of the Uluru climb took effect, following the joint management board's decision and longstanding Aṉangu requests. The change gave practical force to respect for Tjukurpa and the sacred character of the place. It challenged the assumption that tourism access should override the responsibilities and authority of Traditional Owners.
