Histories of recovery and adaptation in the Australian Anthropocene

该项目旨在了解脆弱社区在人类世面临多重环境挑战时是如何应对和适应的。其目的是通过对偏远、农村和沿海社区努力应对淡水更新、植被再生和污染遗留问题的历史和当代经验进行一项重大的新研究，帮助为未来的环境变化做准备。预期结果包括对在不确定的生态未来中蓬勃发展的文化和社会能力的关键洞察。该项目将建设澳大利亚环境历史和人文方面的能力，并为日益增长的国际研究活动领域做出重大贡献。

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.
