Kanyini is an Australian Indigenous word. Kanyini is the principle of connectedness through caring and responsibility that underpins Aboriginal life. Kanyini is a connectedness to tjukurrpa (knowledge of creation or 'Dreaming', spirituality), ngura (place, land), walytja (kinship) and kurunpa (spirit or soul). Kanyini is nurtured through caring and practicing responsibility for all things. The concept of Kanyini is associated with the Northern Territory and especially with the Yankunytjatjara people, one of the traditional land owner groups of Uluru (Ayers Rock).[1]
