- Abstract
Summary: Bilya Bilya Koort Boodja Centre for Nyoongar Culture and Environmental Knowledge in Northam, Western Australia, was the location for this event where legislators, practitioners, academics, Nyoongar Elders, and key representatives for Traditional Steward groups gathered to discuss the current issues and future trajectory of the emerging Indigenous nursery sector, specifically the activities of native seed and seedling supply chain. These activities are key components of the emerging Indigenous‐led restoration economy and indispensable for biodiverse restoration of degraded ecosystems at the landscape scale. Key outcomes included: improved awareness in participants about activities being undertaken across the restoration economy sector; the acknowledgement of a disjunction between academia and business practice, and the realisation that bridging the gap between knowledge and action is becoming increasingly urgent.
