The Northern Gulf community is made up of individuals and groups who live, work in or have a spiritual or custodial attachment to the Northern Gulf region.
The total population is approximately 10,000 people over an area which spans more than 165,000 sq.km and 88% of this land is held within very large leasehold properties. A multi-generational, cross sectoral approach to building capacity and promoting environmental awareness is embraced by the communities of the Northern Gulf region.
The regional communities improve their capacity for climate change resilience through developing and maintaining a strong and sustainable resource-based economy, growing skills and awareness and supporting Traditional Owners in their custodial roles as the region’s land and sea managers.
