“[There is] no difference, they both together, nature and culture... Thats whiteman identifying and dividing nature and culture. When we look at the World Heritage Area we dont just see trees, we see bush tucker, we dont just see rainforest, we see our home, our traditional country.”
by Rhonda Brim (Aboriginal Native Title Holder in the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area in North Queensland, Australia)

Safeguarding the Uniqueness of the Colorado Plateau: An Ecoregional Assessment of Biocultural Diversity

Safeguarding the Uniqueness of the Colorado Plateau: An Ecoregional Assessment of Biocultural Diversity (booklet) (.pdf)

The assessment in the Colorado Plateau was carried out in partnership with Northern Arizona University’s Center for Sustainable Environments, the Grand Canyon Wildlands Council, and the local Native American tribes. It assembled for the first time existing information on the Colorado Plateau from many different fields as well as data from original fieldwork and interviews with a wide range of stakeholders, to provide a snapshot of the state and prospects of biocultural diversity in this unique region of the North American continent.
