Budj Bim landscape nominated for World Heritage listing

In January,  the Prime Minister and Premier of Victoria came together on the banks of Lake Condah to announce that the Budj Bim Cultural Landscape was being officially nominated for recognition by UNESCO as a World Heritage site.

"It is the first area in Australia exclusively listed for its Aboriginal culture and heritage," said PM Malcolm Turnbull. "It is absolutely an appropriate recognition of its significance and its values."
