Integrated natural and cultural resources management options for pastoral lands in the East Kimberley

Product Information

The research project highlights the challenges involved in promoting sustainable development on Indigenous-held pastoral properties in the East Kimberley. Cultural traditions and aspirations, conventional natural resource management (NRM) practices and institutional issues all need to be addressed simultaneously to improve management outcomes in northern Australia. Integrated planning options identified by the project will inform policy makers on indigenous NRM practice and may well highlight weaknesses in existing policies.
