Yandaarra: Caring for Country in Urban and Rural Settings
A/Prof Sarah Wright, Dr Paul Hodge, Aunty Shaa Smith, Neeyan Smith, Lara Daley
This collaborative project is developing practical resources to reconfigure natural resource management by attending to Indigenous ideas of Country, and to Country itself. It includes working with Gumbaynggirr Elders and young people, and the Jaliigirr Biodiversity Alliance of NRM organisations. The project is funded through a linkage grant from the Australian Research Council 2016-2021.
