Paul G. Wunuŋmurra is a Senior Research Fellow and Co-Director of the Centre for Creative Futures at Charles Darwin University. He brings to these roles a lifelong commitment to the creative potential and social responsibilities of enlivening the past and creating new connections.

Paul has co-directed several films including Manapanmirr, in Christmas Spirit (2012) and Ringtone (2014). He is the lead author of Phone & Spear: a Yuta Anthropology which was awarded the Gregory Bateson Prize in 2020 by the Society for Cultural Anthropology and an Open Access publication prize in 2021.
