摘要

An alternative conception to scientific hydrogeological knowledge and approaches that informs extractive and exploitative interests is presented for the Martuwarra Fitzroy River Region, Western Australia. In this alternative view, developed on a foundation of ancestral personhood, the entangled skeins of Martuwarra knowledges, languages, deep histories, and stories are traced to propose a just and equitable approach to co-governance of the region. This paper highlights the critical role of the intergenerational transfer of ancient cultural knowledges and practices between generations in shaping understandings of the River ecosystem.
