For thousands of years the Yamatji and Noongar Aboriginal peoples have been gathering knowledge of the environment across the Northern Agricultural Region (NAR).
Their traditional ecological knowledge is proving extremely valuable in enhancing the ways we care for our environment.
The NACC team recognises the unique understandings and management skills Aboriginal peoples have in supporting our natural resources.
NACC is working alongside traditional landowners to encourage the reinvigoration and use of traditional knowledge to improve conservation outcomes and protect cultural heritage.
By involving Aboriginal people in Natural Resource Management (NRM), NACC is improving the biodiversity of NAR ecosystems, and also strengthening social and economic outcomes across the region.
Through infusing traditional ecology and modern scientific knowledge NACC is working towards taking the best steps forward in supporting our environment and traditional owners.

The teachers became the students this week when NACC hosted a Professional Learning Workshop at Allendale Primary School with the aim of Sharing Yamaji Knowledge.
Aboriginal Rangers participating in the Midwest Aboriginal Ranger Program (MARP) have shifted into top gear with the recent change of seasons.
There were some big kids in the playground on Wednesday when NACC staff visited Jurien Bay District High School to help build the new Yued Nature Play area.
NACC is very excited to announce that we have been successful in obtaining funding to host another BioBlitz!
NACC’s Midwest Aboriginal Ranger Program has been up and running for almost six months now and recently, our team took some time to chat to the Program’s participants to find out how this initiative has been changing their lives.
