Abstract

This report reflects on key findings from First Nations engagement in REAP Project 1, Ecosystem Accounting Pilots for Agricultural and Mixed-Use Landscapes project, which required the team to deliver two regional ecosystem accounting pilots, for the Flinders, Norman and Gilbert river catchments in north Queensland, and for the Western Australian Wheatbelt. Pilot regions are shown in Figure 3. A key aspect of the REAP Project 1 was to develop and test conceptual ecosystem models in the context of First Nations engagement with these models, and whether they reflected a local First Nations understanding of ecosystems (Country), and where similarities and differences lay between the models and these perspectives. For the Flinders, Norman and Gilbert river catchments pilot region, CSIRO partnered with researchers from James Cook University (JCU) for this work.
