Abstract
As the Traditional Owners of the Land and Sea Country, several groups oversee and manage the natural resources within the case study areas, through Traditional Use of Marine Resource Agreements (TUMRAs). One focus of the SEABORNE project, and the component relevant for this workshop report, involves engaging with Reef Traditional Owners within the case study regions to ensure that:
• The database of existing information about use and benefits contains information that is useful for, and usable by, First Nations peoples in their management of Country
• The database of existing information about use and benefits contains First Nations perspectives related to connection to the reef and surrounding Sea Country such that this can be included in GBRMPA reflections on progress towards Reef 2050 goals and in day-to-day reef management decisions.
Our engagement with Reef Traditional Owners involved reaching out to relevant Reef Traditional Owner-led organisations, and inviting each group to participate in a one day face-to-face workshop to explore these matters further. We report here on engagement with participants of the Darumbal TUMRA Working Group.
