Will Caring for our Country mandate Indigenous engagement protocols for regional organisations and other non-government organisations that receive funding?
No. However, the Australian Government strongly encourages proponents to actively engage with Indigenous people. Proposals that incorporate traditional ecological knowledge into achieving Caring for our Country targets are encouraged-especially those that draw together the use of traditional ecological knowledge, local knowledge and formal science to protect, restore and better manage the environment and productive agricultural lands.
