The Desert Knowledge Cooperative Research Centre (DKCRC) was a $70 million seven-year research program that addressed sustainable livelihoods for all people living in the desert region of Australia.
Ninti One ran the DKCRC from 2003 to 2010. The research conducted by the DKCRC was based on strengthening resilience and employment opportunities for remote desert communities, centred on environmentally and socially appropriate natural resource and service enterprises.
Unique desert knowledge was researched that enables thriving and self-sufficient regional desert economies and increased social capital of desert people, their communities and service agencies.
