Henrietta Marrie AM (née Fourmile; born 1954) is a Gimuy Walubara Yidinji elder, an Australian Research Council Fellow and Honorary Professor with the University of Queensland.[1]

Her language name, given by her grandfather, is Bukal and connects her to country, to a place near Woree. Bukal is the black lawyer vine that is characterised by its strength, resilience, and ability to overcome obstacles. Professor Marrie's scholarship includes biocultural diversity, indigenous intellectual property, and traditional ecological knowledge. Through her scholarship and activism she has:

"fought for the recognition of Aboriginal peoples’ intellectual property and cultural rights and particularly for access to and repatriation of ancestral remains, cultural objects and important historical information from national and state museums and archives".[2]

Professor Marrie is a Member of the Order of Australia, "For significant service to the community as an advocate for Indigenous cultural heritage and intellectual property rights, and to education".[3] She is the Patron of the Cairns Indigenous Art Fair,[4] on the council for the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies,[5] and a member of the Queensland Human Rights Commission's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Advisory Group.[6]

Professor Marrie was the first Aboriginal Australian to be selected for a professorial position with the United Nations, was a senior fellow at the United Nations University, Institute for the Advanced Study of Sustainability, and has held academic positions at a number of universities. She has influenced global legislation in the areas of biodiversity and cultural heritage, and has fought for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' cultural rights, access to and repatriation of ancestral remains, cultural objects and important historical information from national and state museums and archives.[7] Professor Marie has published over 100 academic papers, reports, and chapters in edited books. Her publications address cultural heritage policy,[8][9][10] Indigenous cultural property,[11][12][13][14] the role of native title in the protection of Indigenous heritage and the protection of biodiversity related knowledges,[15][16] the benefit of Traditional Owners in protected area management,[17][18] institutional racism[19] and Indigenous Tourism.[20][21]
