Product Overview

Renewing Women's Business gives us one community's views and understanding of the established customary laws of women and how these customs are passed on as part of young girls' initiation into adult knowledge. We are taken on this journey with Lily Gin.gina, the last initiated female of the Wardaman people of the Victoria River District of the Northern Territory, Australia.
