Darwin biodiversity values survey
We believe Darwin’s residents and visitors possess a wealth of knowledge about the natural aspects of the city. This understanding, and often long-lived experience, is rarely reported in the scientific literature or available when management decisions are made.
We’re interested in hearing what you know about Darwin’s animals, plants and habitats. We aim to present a community-based understanding of biodiversity and identify the natural and green places around Darwin that are highly valued both in the past and today.
We acknowledge the long history of connection to Country by the traditional owners of the greater Darwin area. This project is co-led by Larrakia and we would be grateful to hear how Darwin has changed for the Larrakia people and how this affects their culture and use of Country.
