Planning for Nature-based Solutions

Sitting out in the open is the best place to promote Nature-based Solutions. Liz Owen, a Director of Jaragun EcoServices, delivered a persuasive presentation to attendees of Illuminate FNQ’s inaugural Indigenous Science Festival on the importance of having environmental systems and community values at the heart of catchment management planning. As author or the Russell River Catchment Sustainability Plan 2020-2035, Liz explained Jaragun’s planning tools, amongst them the Queensland Government’s Whole-of-System, Values-based Framework that delivers sustainable, nature-based solutions.
