Description

Amplifying Leadership and Voices of Indigenous women environmental rangers. Indigenous women rangers face significant challenges in having their collective wisdom heard by governments and other bodies. Whilst empowered as community leaders through their deep knowledge borne from millennia of cultural practice, their leadership voices have less impact beyond their communities. This project partners with Indigenous women rangers across Northern Australia to establish new pathways for their leadership voices to be heard, increasing their leadership impact. Expected outcomes will enable Indigenous communities to lead change in the field of land management through their women rangers. This will result in more successful promotion and implementation of their ideas, knowledge and practices beyond their communities.. Scheme: Linkage Projects. Field: 3507 - Strategy, Management and Organisational Behaviour. Lead: A/Prof Terrance Fitzsimmons
