Assessing the health of priority waterholes and building digital confidence with the Warddeken (Daluk) rangers
In the Warddeken Indigenous Protected Area, daluk (women) rangers and researchers have co-designed a project to monitor priority waterholes using digital tools. Through micro-credential badges co-developed by women rangers through the Healthy Country AI Program and Northern Institute (CSIRO and CDU partnership), rangers are building digital skills and confidence to assess country. This action research supports Traditional Owners and Custodians to collect, care, and tell a story with data to guide local decision-making and care for freshwater places. Together the presenters will discuss the journey in developing the micro-credentials, how these were applied for ecological research, and what we learnt together about the impacts on biocultural values of waterholes from feral species.
Co-presented by Dr Cara Penton, Suzannah Nabulwad and Dr Jennifer Macdonald
