This research will examine the potential for products to be developed from plants on Kaanju homelands. Kaanju people have an immense ecological knowledge accumulated over generations, about the natural resources in an area recognised as being one of Australia's most biologically diverse. Preservation of this knowledge is critical not only to Kaanju people but to the heritage of the Nation as a whole. The research also addresses the National priority 'Promoting & maintaining good health' through the investigation of novel pharmacological activities in areas of cardiovascular health, diabetes and cancer. The collaborative research partnership will serve as a model to assist other Aboriginal organisations, particularly in rural & remote areas.

这项研究将研究从Kaanju家园的植物中开发产品的潜力。Kaanju人有一个巨大的生态知识积累了几代人，关于自然资源的一个地区被认为是澳大利亚最具生物多样性的一个。保存这些知识不仅对Kaanju人至关重要，而且对整个国家的遗产也至关重要。该研究还通过调查心血管健康，糖尿病和癌症领域的新药理学活动，解决了国家优先事项“促进和保持良好健康”。合作研究伙伴关系将成为协助其他土著组织的典范，特别是在农村和偏远地区。
