Dugong and Marine Turtle Knowledge Handbook
Traditional Owners from the Kimberley, Top End of the Northern
Territory, southern Gulf of Carpentaria, Cape York and the Torres
Strait have joined forces to develop community-driven approaches to
the sustainable management of marine turtles and dugongs in
northern Australia.
Coordinated by the North Australian Indigenous Land and Sea
Management Alliance (NAILSMA) and the CRC for Tropical Savannas,
the Dugong and Marine Turtle project takes a fresh approach by
ensuring that Traditional Owners and Indigenous communities are
driving research and management activities.
