<p>Narungga Nation have continued their efforts to restore
traditional land management processes, holding inclusive workshops for Yorke Peninsula locals who are eager to explore the benefits of burning on Country.</p>
<p>On September 30 and October 1 workshops were held at
Ardrossan and Minlagawi Gum Flat, with Narungga fire practitioners demonstrating controlled burns on site.</p>
<p>The Cultural Burns Education Project has seen the delivering of workshops and the production of
short films to be used on social media and websites, to increase understanding around how native vegetation responds to fire, how it can be managed to reduce
fire risk, why it is an important cultural practice, and how caring for Country by Narungga people leads to healthy people and environment.</p>
<p>Narungga Elder, Rex Angie, was present during Narungga burns over the past years and was excited to see their land management practices in the spotlight.</p>
<p>The project was delivered by a steering committee
with representatives from Narungga Nation Aboriginal Corporation, Point Pearce Aboriginal Corporation/Indigenous Protected Areas Rangers, Nharangga Aboriginal Progress Association, Nharangga Aboriginal Cultural Tours, Northern and Yorke Landscape Board, Firesticks, and Narungga community members.</p>
