Australia’s Indigenous communities have responsibilities for managing their Land and Sea Country in partnership with governments. Much of Australia’s globally significant biodiversity occurs in Indigenous country. Effective management requires plans to be developed using both western science and Traditional Knowledge to enable local communities to protect both their culture and biodiversity. This project will develop innovative scientific tools to assist Indigenous communities and governments to design and implement systematic conservation planning initiatives ‘on country’, using Torres Strait as a case study. The tools that are developed will have general relevance to Australian Indigenous communities and developing countries.

澳大利亚的土著社区有责任与政府合作管理其陆地和海洋国家。澳大利亚的大部分全球重要的生物多样性发生在土著国家。有效的管理需要利用西方科学和传统知识制定计划，使当地社区能够保护其文化和生物多样性。该项目将开发创新的科学工具，以托雷斯海峡为案例研究，协助土著社区和政府设计和实施系统的“国家”保护规划倡议。所开发的工具将对澳大利亚土著社区和发展中国家具有普遍意义。
