For the first time the Charles Darwin University Northern Institute will host a research showcase in Alice Springs to highlight projects, how organisations can get involved and what impact research has in the region.
Dr Jennifer Macdonald completed her PhD at Charles Darwin University in 2019 and has over 7 years’ experience working with Indigenous communities in South Australia and the Northern Territory, including Kakadu National Park.

Indigenous Peoples are crucial for the long-term persistence of the Earth’s biodiversity and ecosystem services. In the Philippines, the Indigenous Peoples Rights Act of 1998 protects Indigenous rights to own and manage territories. The forests of Indigenous territories are habitats of the Philippine eagle – a forest eagle that is endemic to the Philippines where it is a national bird and an apex forest predator.
Charles Darwin University is encouraging people impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak to take advantage of the free opportunities available to them and emerge from isolation with a new skill-set.
An international symposium exploring the effects of artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) in eastern Indonesia will be hosted by Charles Darwin University today (Tuesday, 28 April).
