Capturing Culture Collecting seeds and capturing culture For 600 generations, the Spinifex people have maintained and fostered their spiritual and cultural connection to their traditional lands in the heart of the Great Victoria Desert. For many Spinifex women this has meant passing their rich bio-cultural knowledge of plants and seeds down through generations. Now, thanks to the creation of the Aboriginal Ranger Program, the Spinifex women will be supported to combine their traditional knowledge with modern plant biology to ensure this knowledge is protected, and to provide positive opportunities for all those involved. by Mitzi Vance eep in the heart of Western Australia’s spinifex country, within the arid, remote, rugged D ● Great Victoria and beautiful Great Victoria Desert, is the Desert traditional land of the Spinifex people.

It will provide a pathway for Aboriginal people to develop careers in land and sea management and create long-term opportunities in Aboriginal communities. The $20 million five-year program is working to increase employment and training of Aboriginal people in land and sea management, including conservation, cultural, tourism and education activities across a range of tenures. This investment supports new and established ranger groups across WA to manage Country in partnership with public and private sectors. Significant progress has been made in implementing the program since it began in September 2017. The Spinifex women project was one of 13 recipients provided with funding under round one of the program, which totalled $8.5 million. The range of applications received from across the State, including the Kimberley, Midwest and South West regions strongly reflects the aspirations of Aboriginal people to establish new ranger programs to manage their Country.

  • Extract from Hansard [COUNCIL — Tuesday, 4 December 2018
    Extract from Hansard [COUNCIL — Tuesday, 4 December 2018] p9065b-9072a Hon Donna Faragher; Hon Jacqui Boydell; Hon Colin Tincknell; Hon Robin Chapple; Hon Stephen Dawson RESERVES (TJUNTJUNTJARA COMMUNITY) BILL 2018 Second Reading Resumed from 1 November. HON DONNA FARAGHER (East Metropolitan) [2.54 pm]: I am the lead speaker for the opposition on the Reserves (Tjuntjuntjara Community) Bill 2018. The PRESIDENT: That is going to be the test, member—to see who can pronounce it correctly before we finish with this bill. Hon DONNA FARAGHER: I got some positive nods, Madam President, so I am hoping I am heading in the right direction. There are a few more words as well, so I will see how I go by the end. I say at the outset that the opposition supports this bill. Essentially, the bill provides the ability to excise more than 78 000 hectares from the Great Victoria Desert Nature Reserve to enable tenure to be granted to the Tjuntjuntjara Aboriginal community. This requires parliamentary approval to proceed, given that the nature reserve is a class A reserve. As was noted in the second reading speech, the Tjuntjuntjara community, which is a member of a larger group known as the Spinifex people, has existed on the western extent of the nature reserve since 1988, if not before. Technically, however, it does not have either a registrable land interest or legal access, albeit that the Spinifex people were recognised through a Federal Court of Australia determination in the year 2000 as having non-exclusive native title rights over part of the area of the nature reserve, including the area occupied by the community.

  • A Biodiversity Conservation Plan for Shield and Central Subregions of the Great Victoria Desert
    A biodiversity conservation plan for Shield and Central subregions of the Great Victoria Desert Review of literature and research records Prepared for the review by the Department of the Environment– under the EBPC Approval EPBC 2008/4270 Section 6 (a)(i) Executive Summary This document represents a collaboration between diverse stakeholders to collate biodiversity information on the Shield and Central subregions (SCS) of the Great Victoria Desert. Overwhelmingly, in reading this document the paucity of knowledge on the region will be become clear. In a very remote region, with no major settlements, distance and inaccessibility have limited the ability of researchers to conduct broad scale studies across the region. Some of the information in this plan is determined from broad scale national data sets. Other information comes from regional centres just outside, or on the edges of the SCS, and is extrapolated to apply to the region. Information also spans decades as important research conducted in the 1980’s and 1990’s has not been repeated and still represents the best available state of knowledge for biodiversity in the region. Much of the current information on the region comes from studies commissioned by mining and exploration activities. These reports have greatly increased knowledge of species and habitat in specific areas of the SCS. Taken together, the information captured helps to provide a baseline for the current understanding of the region and the biodiversity wherein. In this initial document, planning for future activities in the region, both in terms of research and on-ground land management are primarily extracted from existing documents.
