Abstract: This report presents the findings of a research project, which was conducted as collaboration and liaison between a regional NRM group (the Burdekin Dry Tropics Board), a research provider (CSIRO) and a Traditional Owner group (the Nywaigi Traditional owners, represented by the Girringun Aboriginal Corporation and the Nywaigi Land Corporation). The research established a concept and framework for defining wellbeing of Traditional Owners, and explored in detail the contribution, which culture and country make to the wellbeing of Nywaigi Traditional Owners. It also provided comment on how natural resource planning and management can contribute to the improvement of Traditional Owner wellbeing.
