     7.1.9              In consultation with KRMAC, develop, implement, review and update a Research and Monitoring Strategy that:

        (a)      identifies research and monitoring priorities and contributes to a strategic, evidence-based approach to research

        (b)      contributes to the understanding of park values, use and management issues

        (c)       provides for ongoing monitoring and reporting of park values, use and management issues (see Section 9.10: Implementing and evaluating the plan).

     7.1.10          In consultation with the AAPA and traditional owners, develop Indigenous research protocols and review them along with ERISS research protocols, the research guidelines approved by the Board and conditions as needed. The Indigenous research protocols will ensure research:

        (a)      incorporates Bininj/Mungguy knowledge and perspectives

        (b)      reflects consultation with Bininj/Mungguy depending on expected level of impact

        (c)       engages with and provides opportunities for collaboration with and employment for Bininj/Mungguy

        (d)      is in accordance with the EPBC Act and this plan.

     7.1.11          Develop, implement and review a knowledge management framework that prioritises:

        (a)      protection of Bininj/Mungguy sensitive information.

        (b)      adoption of standards and protocols for managing ecological, biophysical, cultural and demographic data collected within the park

        (c)       recording information where management actions are implemented

        (d)      access to the latest data, information and information management systems (currently spatial systems) at appropriate scales by park management and other relevant staff

        (e)      mapping of priority areas for natural and cultural values for each key park landscape to inform management priorities

     7.1.12          Promote opportunities for citizen science in the park.

     8                       Living in the park – Jabiru and outstations
This section sets out the policies for Jabiru, outstations and living in the park, including any Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) provisions which directly relate to the Director of National Parks (the Director), and the actions the Director will take over the life of the plan. Residents of the park should refer to Section 10.3 for policies relating to living in the park.

Background

Bininj/Mungguy outstations have been established in some areas of the park, and it is likely that Bininj/Mungguy will want to establish more over the life of this plan. The Kakadu Board of Management believes it is important for Bininj/Mungguy to be able to set up outstations to live in and maintain connection to country and culture. It is also important that outstations are set up by people with the right connection to the area; people or organisations who set up outstations make sure they are properly managed and resourced; and the impact of outstations on park values is minimised.

Establishment, maintenance and resourcing of outstations is
