Aboriginal Land and Sea Management

Aboriginal Land and Sea Management involves Indigenous communities overseeing the natural resources, habitats, and ecosystems on their traditional lands and waters. It integrates cultural practices, traditional knowledge, and scientific methods to protect biodiversity, manage fires, prevent invasive species, and sustain sustainable use. This approach honors Indigenous connections to the land and sea, promotes conservation, and supports cultural heritage. It often includes collaborative efforts with government agencies, ensuring Indigenous peoples have a central role in the stewardship of their environment, balancing ecological health with cultural and economic needs.
