Working together to heal Country – what does that look like in practice?

From restoring bushland affected by urbanisation and vegetation clearing to protecting culturally significant species, Indigenous-led research is shaping culturally grounded responses to many environmental challenges.

This National Reconciliation Week, explore new ways of working as Indigenous Knowledge and Western science come together to deliver co-designed research and training with real-world outcomes for Country (Boodja), and kin (Moort).

Hear from 2025 Premier’s Science Award’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Scientist of the Year, Professor Stephen van Leeuwen, and emerging Indigenous leaders, researchers, and educators from:

• The ARC Training Centre for Healing Country
• National Environmental Science Program’s Resilient Landscapes Hub (NESP), and
• Walking on Country Field School

This event will highlight how Indigenous Knowledge is being embedded in research and partnerships that foster respect, reciprocity, and a shared commitment to caring for Country.

Open to researchers, students, industry, and community, we invite you to learn from the lived experience and wisdom of Indigenous Australians—the first and enduring stewards of this land—and discover how their guidance can shape a more connected, respectful, and sustainable future for all.
