Puyurru – Chilla Well

8 minute watch

Join Traditional Owners and the Warlpiri Rangers on the South Tanami Indigenous Protected Area as they workshop ways to share their right way desert fire story with the emerging global nature market and beyond.

"When we go out bush burning we take Elders too, TOs, and they teach us which way to burn, in the right way."

Nancy Collins, South Tanami IPA Management Committee

The IDA has been working to develop the Desert Habitat Method to provide desert land managers with a transparent, practical, and robust tool that can be used to evaluate large-scale land management programs occurring within Australia’s spinifex dominated desert regions.

The Desert Habitat Method Trials Project is supported through funding from the Australian Government's Innovative Biodiversity Monitoring Program.

We acknowledge all partners including Central Land Council, Warlpiri Rangers and the South Tanami IPA Management Committee.
