Description

Re/connecting People, Nature and Sustainable Futures via Indigenous tourism. This project aims to identify how Australians might appropriately learn from and act on Indigenous knowledges for more sustainable futures. In the face of global ecological crises, Indigenous custodians are increasingly recognised as sustainable land managers from who much can be learned, yet it is not clearly understood how different individuals might be influenced by Indigenous sustainability thinking. In collaboration with NSW-based Indigenous tour operators, this project aims to discover the potential of Indigenous custodians as change agents towards sustainability thinking and action, communicated widely through research publications, reports to policy-makers. and documentary film.. Scheme: Discovery Early Career Researcher Award. Field: 1604 - Human Geography. Lead: Dr Marnie Graham
