Writing Country, Culture, and Community into the Future 

Acknowledgement of Country

 We acknowledge the Kokatha people as the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the lands on which we originate. We pay respect to Kokatha Elders past, present and emerging, and recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and culture.

We acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded and that this always was and always will be Kokatha Country.

lineage is empowerment

  

Kokatha Lineage Press is an Aboriginal-owned independent publishing and research platform dedicated to preserving, protecting, and sharing Aboriginal knowledge, history, and lived experience through culturally grounded storytelling, education, and research.

Founded and led by Conrad Bilney, Kokatha Lineage Press centres Aboriginal voices, intergenerational knowledge, and ethical engagement with history, science, and Country.

KLP's Purpose

KLP's Driving Force

KLP's Driving Force

 Kokatha Lineage Press exists because Aboriginal stories, knowledge and research are still too often told about us, not by us. It provides an Aboriginal‑led platform for Kokatha history, lived experience and ATK‑science work that mainstream publishers and institutions frequently ignore, filter or control.

KLP's Driving Force

Kokatha Lineage Press is led by its founder, who has over 40 years of work experience, formal tertiary qualifications and strong ties to his Kokatha inheritance. This background shapes every project, keeping Aboriginal knowledge, lived experience and cultural responsibility at the centre of the work.
