Current and recent Research Funding to JCU is shown by funding source and project.
Australian Government Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment - Contract Research
Research on First Nations perspectives on ecosystem accounting in the `Ecosystem Accounting Pilots for Agricultural and Mixed-Use Landscapes? project
- Indicative Funding
- $65,000 over 1 year (administered by Commonwealth Scientific & Industrial Research Organisation)
- Summary
- Through engagement with First Nations Australians from Flinders, Norman and Gilbert River catchment study area, the project seeks to co-design workshops/meetings, ensuring that the outcomes of the conversations flow as benefits to First Nations Australians and inform the Federal Government?s Regional Ecosystem Accounting Pilot (REAP) project. The project will explore perceptions of ecosystem change in mixed use landscapes, exploring the drivers of change and what changes have been observed recently; facilitate the development of one or more ecosystem conceptual models as representation of First Nations understanding of local ecosystems; and provide graphical representations of the First Nations co-designed ecosystem model(s).

- Diane Jarvis and Daniel Grainger (College of Business and Law & Governance)
- Keywords
- Ecosystem accounting; Environmental economic accounting; First Nations values; Ecosystem Services; Ecosystem models; Ecosystem condition
Department of the Environment and Energy - National Environmental Science Programme (NESP) - Northern Australia Environmental Resources Hub
Synthesis Project - Kakadu Cultural Connections
- Indicative Funding
- $90,000 over 2 years
- Summary
- The national land account project, within the Department of Environment and Energy is developing an Experimental Ecosystem Accounting (EEA) system, strongly guided by the UN System of Environmental Economic Accounts (SEEA). This project will explore options and make recommendations for acknowledging and possibly including Indigenous cultural connections within that ecosystem accounting framework. It may be possible to generate some monetary estimates of value, but the explorations may instead conclude that Indigenous cultural connections should be considered alongside, rather than as a subset, of other ecosystem services (much as the government compiles tourism satellite accounts that are published alongside the national accounts).
