Histories of recovery and adaptation in the Australian Anthropocene

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project seeks to understand how vulnerable communities cope and adapt when faced with multiple environmental challenges in the Anthropocene. Its aim is to help prepare for future environmental change by producing a major new study of historical and contemporary experiences in remote, rural, and coastal communities grappling with freshwater renewal, vegetation regeneration, and pollution legacies. The expected outcomes include critical insights into cultural and social capacity for thriving in uncertain ecological futures. The project will build capacity in Australian environmental history and humanities, and make a significant contribution to a growing area of international research activity.
