"text": "Inappropriate fire regimes threaten biodiversity and ecosystem function. They restrict natural processes like plant regeneration and reduce genetic diversity in plant communities. We’re investigating how collaborative partnerships with Indigenous fire practitioners can improve the management of forest and grassland ecosystems.\n\nOur researchers are providing scientific support to the Bunya Peoples’ Aboriginal Corporation (BPAC) who conduct cultural burning in the ‘grassy bald’ mountain grasslands of the Bunya Mountains in southern Queensland. Indigenous burning can help maintain biodiversity, ecosystem function and evolutionary potential, while enabling cultural, spiritual and provisional connections to Country for Indigenous people. In collaboration with BPAC, our research team is tracking these ecosystem responses to provide an evidence base for promoting cultural burning as a tool for land management.\n\nWe are working alongside BPAC and other ranger groups in their ‘“Right fire” for Country and resilience through safety-based engagement’ project. We aim to develop monitoring techniques and analytical tools to better understand the ecological effects of cultural burning and communicate these broadly among BPAC and other ranger groups. We will also be identifying strategies to enhance collaborative partnerships between BPAC and other agencies in the future.\n\n### Key research areas\nTo address the challenge of appropriate fire management, this project is:\n* identifying potential strategies and social enabling conditions to support cultural fire management\n* understanding the ecological and evolutionary outcomes of burning to assist future burning plans and efforts across land tenures\n* developing a set of solutions for overcoming institutional barriers to more widespread and frequent cultural burning practices across landscapes.\n\n### Pathway to impact\nThis project will support appropriate fire management by:\n* improving understanding of how different fire practices affect ecosystems\n* supporting BPAC and Indigenous fire practitioners with practical evidence\n* strengthening partnerships for cultural fire management\n* informing future fire planning for threatened species and ecosystems.\n ",
