Centre for Conservation Geography: Version 1.0, October 2016 Page 1 Commercial fishing in Australia’s Marine Reserves ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ABOUT THE AUTHOR CENTRE FOR CONSERVATION GEOGRAPHY The Centre for Conservation Geography is a research group established in June 2011 to provide expert technical support and advice to government and non-government decision-makers and stakeholders. The centre applies world's best practice in decision support to biodiversity conservation planning. Based in Australia, our goal is to build a multi-disciplinary team capable of providing support to conservation decisions being made across the world's ecoregions. The Centre for Conservation Geography currently has projects in Australia and in the Southern Ocean. Our areas of expertise are in marine and terrestrial protected area planning, including protected area performance assessment, cost-efficient conservation priority setting and planning for multiple objectives (e.g. carbon sequestration and biodiversity protection). http://www.conservationgeography.org/ BRIEF BIOGRAPHY: DANIEL BEAVER Daniel is the director of the Centre for Conservation Geography, a visiting scholar at San Francisco State University’s Marine & Coastal Conservation and Spatial Planning Lab, and an adjunct research fellow at the Centre for Biodiversity and Conservation Science at the University of Queensland. He has over 15 years of experience in the theory and practice of systematic conservation planning both on land and in the ocean, and has been engaged in planning for marine protected areas and marine sanctuaries in Australia since 2004. BRIEF BIOGRAPHY: JOEL TURNER Joel completed a Bachelor of Science (environmental) with honours in 2006 and a Masters in Conservation Biology in 2013 and has been engaged in research with the Centre for Conservation Geography since 2008. In that time his major areas of research have been the review and analysis of Australia’s National Representative System of Marine Protected Areas (NRSMPA) and the classification of benthic marine environments in the Southern Ocean. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Marine & Coastal Conservation and Spatial Planning Lab, San Francisco State University, and the Centre for Biodiversity and Conservation Science, The University of Queensland, provided invaluable assistance and support in completing this research.

    Our Year in Review Annual Report 2018-2019 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF TRADITIONAL OWNERS belong holds the deepest respect for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the first people of this country, and we acknowledge that the prosperity of modern day Australia is built on lands stolen, never ceded. We acknowledge that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have survived and continue to endure the traumas of historical and systemic injustices on their lands and people. Yet we celebrate the world’s longest surviving cultures - testament to systems of belief and technological sophistication that supported the survival of more than 250 clans or ‘nations’ across the enormous range of environments that comprise this continent. We also honour the incredible resilience of our nation’s first people, and their often under- celebrated contributions to our nation’s economic, social and cultural development. We are proud that our Acacia Ridge heartland boasts one of South East Queensland’s strong- est Indigenous communities, and we are grateful for everything that they teach us. We are proud of the achievements, courage and resilience of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people we rub shoulders with every day. We are proud to be headquartered in a Queensland state electorate led by the first Indigenous woman to be elected to Queensland parliament. We aim to tread gently on these lands, to listen to the wisdom of our elders, and to do what we can to help bridge the gap and contribute to the preservation of culture and lingo. We pay our deepest respect to the Jagera people on whose land we are privileged to work, and pay our respects to Elders past, present, and emerging.

  • Marriageability and Indigenous Representation in the White Mainstream Media in Australia
    Marriageability and Indigenous Representation in the White Mainstream Media in Australia PhD Thesis 2007 Andrew King BA (Hons) Supervisor: Associate Professor Alan McKee Creative Industries, Queensland University of Technology Abstract By means of a historical analysis of representations, this thesis argues that an increasing sexualisation of Indigenous personalities in popular culture contributes to the reconciliation of non-Indigenous and Indigenous Australia. It considers how sexualised images and narratives of Indigenous people, as they are produced across a range of film, television, advertising, sport and pornographic texts, are connected to a broader politics of liberty and justice in the present postmodern and postcolonial context. By addressing this objective the thesis will identify and evaluate the significance of ‘banal’ or everyday representations of Aboriginal sexuality, which may range from advertising images of kissing, television soap episodes of weddings, sultry film romances through to more evocatively oiled-up representations of the pin- up-calendar variety. This project seeks to explore how such images offer possibilities for creating informal narratives of reconciliation, and engendering understandings of Aboriginality in the media beyond predominant academic concerns for exceptional or fatalistic versions. i Keywords Aboriginality Indigenous Marriageability Reconciliation Popular Culture Sexuality Relationships Interracial Public Sphere Mediasphere Celebrity ii Table of Contents Introduction ………………………………………………………………………….

  • Ccg Briefing Paper on the Economics of the Territory
    Applied Strategic Tools and Conservation Innovation Centre for Conservation Geography CCG BRIEFING PAPER ON THE ECONOMICS OF THE TERRITORY MARINE AND COASTAL ENVIRONMENT Version: 1.0 March, 2017 Type: Independent research commissioned by the Keep Top End Coasts Healthy alliance. Authors: Daniel Beaver, Thomas Keily, Joel Turner and Kate Fritz. NON-MARKET BASED ECONOMICS Key Findings: The unaccounted for environmental services of the Territory coastal and marine environment are worth greater than $420 million per annum. Territorians are likely to place a high value on initiatives that result in improvements in the health of the Territory’s coastal and marine environment. This value is likely to be Recommendations:more than $34 million per annum. 1. The Territory Government should include consideration of unaccounted for ecosystem services as part of the Territory’s Economic Summits Economic Framework, as well as the Coastal and Marine Management Strategy. 2. The Territory Government should commission a detailed valuation of the unaccounted for ecosystem services of the Territory coastal and marine environment. This valuation should include ecosystem services from additional key habitats like estuaries and mangroves. 3. The Territory Government should commission updated habitat mapping of Territory 4. coastal waters, particularly for seagrasses and reefs. As part of the Territory’s Economic Summits and Coastal and Marine Management Strategy, the Territory Government should undertake choice modelling to identify the value that Territorians, other Australians, and international tourists place on initiatives to improve the health of the Territory’s marine environment.
