Out of respect for the Marika family, the Rirratjingu clan and the broader Yolŋu community as they observe cultural mourning obligations, Charles Darwin University has made the decision not to proceed with the Vincent Lingiari Memorial Lecture scheduled for Wednesday, 12 August 2026.
We recognise the significance of this annual lecture and are exploring opportunities to hold the event at a later date. If a new date is confirmed, we will share further information with the University community.
We are deeply committed to ensuring that the lecture proceeds in a way that honours Vincent Lingiari's legacy and respects the wishes and cultural values, responsibilities and aspirations of the Gurindji people.
Charles Darwin University extends its deepest condolences to the Marika family, their loved ones and community at this very sad time. We thank you for your understanding and respect.
