Adaptation in the West Kimberley with Professor Anne Poelina | Lyrebird Festival Panel Discussion 2
Festival Hub adjacent to The Old Stables - Lot 101
Join nature champions Professor Anne Poelina, Mara Bun and Guy Williams to learn about an Indigenous-led initiative designed to build climate resilience for Traditional Owners, remote communities and precious ecosystems in the West Kimberley.
As the strongest El Niño on record collides with a spike in ocean temperature, we are experiencing climate impacts that point to the urgency of adaptation alongside mitigation.
The West Kimberley Climate Adaptation Pilot is a pioneering Indigenous-led initiative as it nests nature restoration in the context of "Forever Industries" and introduces the first implementation of the Wentworth Group of Concerned Scientists' "Blueprint to Repair Australia's Landscapes" at bioregional scale.
