Turning Wrong Way Climate Right Way: a First Nations response to climate change in Central Victoria
First Nations People have a wealth of traditional knowledge and skills to adapt to climate change, gained through thousands of years of survival and resilience. In Central Victoria, the Dja Dja Wurrung people have developed a climate change strategy called "Turning Wrong Way Climate Right Way." The strategy emphasises a holistic approach to climate change adaptation, incorporating all elements of the ecosystem and traditional knowledge. It includes specific initiatives, such as re-landscaping waterways, forest gardening, controlled cultural burns, and nature-based flood mitigation.
