Now we are living together, white people and black people. We are working together, white and black, equal. Everything at Uluru still runs according to our Law. All the rangers wear badges carrying the image of Uluru. That is as it should be. | Uluru-Kata Tjuta Cultural Centre
The title deeds to this land were handed back to the Traditional Anangu Owners by the Governor General of Australia in 1985. In turn the land was leased back to the Australian Government to be reserved as a national park for 99 years.
Since the return of Uluru-Kata Tjuta to the traditional owners, Anangu and the Australian Government have been working together to:
- keep Tjukurpa strong (Anangu traditional law and way of life)
- support a healthy culture and society
- look after country and protect a national symbol
- protect the world heritage natural and cultural environments of the park
