superuser — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 02:56:29 +0000

The research project highlighted 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 informed policy makers on indigenous NRM practice and highlighted weaknesses in existing policies.
