The project aims to generate new knowledge of the formation and evolution of cultural values and practices relating to water in the Murray-Darling Basin. By applying innovative approaches from the environmental humanities, it will investigate the development of cultures of water and their role in long-standing water-sharing conflicts. The expected outcome is a greater understanding of influential ideas about the value of water and rivers and a Water Cultures Network to facilitate collaboration between humanities and social science scholars, environmental scientists, and water managers. The public will benefit from knowing how water use behaviours evolved in the Basin and how they might be reframed to adapt to a hotter, drier future.

该项目旨在产生有关墨累-达令盆地与水有关的文化价值观和做法的形成和演变的新知识。通过应用环境人文学的创新方法，它将调查水文化的发展及其在长期水资源共享冲突中的作用。预期的成果是更好地了解有关水和河流价值的有影响力的思想，以及促进人文和社会科学学者，环境科学家和水管理人员之间合作的水文化网络。公众将受益于了解流域的用水行为如何演变，以及如何重新构建这些行为以适应更炎热、更干燥的未来。
