Funded Activity Summary

Indigenous Knowledge and Resource Management in Northern Australia. The project responds to increasing demands of Indigenous communities across northern Australia for the digital archiving of threatened Indigenous Knowledge (IK) to facilitate conservation and intergenerational transmission. The project aims to develop a series of databases of IK satisfying the requirements of varied stakeholders, including Indigenous communities, resource management agencies and researchers. The project is innovative in giving a dominant voice to Indigenous researchers and consultants in the development of protocols for database structures, protection of intellectual property rights, intergenerational transmission and negotiation of dissemination of information to resource management agencies and academic researchers.
