Theme 1 Natural Resource Theme 1 Natural Resource Management: BasicsManagement: Basics
• CRC is committed to research that supports sustainable economic growth of northern Australia
• Pressure on resources will intensify with increasing $ value of land & resources
• Planned maintenance of assets is vastly preferable to heroic rescue

Theme 1 Natural Resource Theme 1 Natural Resource ManagementManagement
• Focus on adaptive management• Evaluation of options, taking
full set of values into account• Focus on assets and aspirations
– Management of intensive resource uses– Delivery of improved extensive
landscape management

NRM ChallengesNRM Challenges• Knowledge systems for north
Australian development – optimising tradeoffs from intensification (Pastoral lands, Intensive agriculture, wildlife management)
• Property and regional scales• Landscape design• Tools for extensive landscape
management• Cost-benefit analysis of options

Theme 2 Livelihood Theme 2 Livelihood OptionsOptions
• Options & Strategies for commercial and/or customary economic activities to complement orthodox uses of savanna resources – Tourism – carbon offsets, – land and biodiversity stewardship and maintenance of
ecosystem services, – sustainable use of wildlife, – bio-security
• Business development, governance, policy environment

Research Issues - Research Issues - LivelihoodsLivelihoods
• Valuing resources, services & activities
• Governance & institutions – producing multiple benefits
• Packaging full range of benefits & costs (people on country)
• What works in enterprise development

Theme 3 Policy Options & Theme 3 Policy Options & ApproachesApproaches
• Analysis of investment strategies for regional natural resource management
• Tools to improve regional NRM planning and engagement
• Strategies for maximising the benefit from the limited available investment (State/Territory, NHT, NAP)
• Maximise cross-portfolio outcomes

Basics of a Re-bidBasics of a Re-bid• Must demonstrate economic return on
investment• Must have strong stakeholder support,
end-user involvement and pathways to adoption
• Must leverage resources (in-kind & cash)
• Must have significant new elements; need to re-invent, but build on existing strengths
