Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Knowledges Seminar Series: Connection to Country In-Person
Connection to Country
Led by Dr Peter Ampt from the Sydney Institute of Agriculture, and featuring community members from the Central West of NSW, Connection to Country will explore the significance of “country” to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and provide insight into the challenges around maintaining that connection in 2018 Australia.
About Dr Ampt
Peter is an interdisciplinary researcher who applies participatory, mixed method approaches to improve our understanding of complex adaptive social-ecological systems. He has applied this approach to environmental policy and management for production landscapes, agricultural and environmental extension, conservation through sustainable use and investigation of eco-innovators at the forefront of the transition to agro-ecology. He also works with Indigenous communities to develop working knowledge that integrates traditional knowledge of land and food with other approaches. Peter has a high profile in natural resource management and extension with extensive contacts and experience with the Landcare movement, Local Land Services, kangaroo management and ecological agriculture, with particular interest in Indigenous land management and integration of Indigenous and other knowledges.
