Recently I had the pleasure of attending the launch of Gidarjil Development Corporation’s newest vessel the ‘Guardian Warrior’. The new custom-built vessel will operate in offshore waters and will allow the organisation to undertake fee for service activities across a much broader area of sea country.
The Gidarjil Land and Sea Rangers are doing amazing things to protect and preserve the values and traditions of the traditional lands of Indigenous people. These activities Include expanding turtle protection, traditional fire stick burning for weed and forest management, and water quality management support. The Liberals National Government is investing in Indigenous Rangers and delivering important environmental, biosecurity, cultural and economic outcomes for remote communities, as well as all Australians.
