Kimberley Land Council Aboriginal Corporation ICN 21 is an association of Aboriginal people in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. It was formed at a meeting at Noonkanbah Station in May 1978.

The introduction of the Native Title Act in 1993 saw the KLC as the native title representative body for Kimberley traditional owners.

In the years 1998 to 2007, Federal Court native title litigation was successful for the following claims:

  • Miriuwung Gajerrong
  • Karajarri
  • Tjurabalan
  • Bardi Jawi
  • Wanjina Wunggur Wilinggin
  • Rubibi
  • The KLC has also successfully negotiated consent determinations for a number of native title applications including the Uunguu and Dambimangari determinations made in May 2011.
