The @AboriginalSeaC and Skills Insight have joined forces as a powerful partnership, launching the Community-Based Aquaculture Training project over a successful two-day workshop! Bringing together First Nations leaders, industry experts, and community stakeholders, the workshop focused on developing culturally appropriate aquaculture training tools—empowering communities with skills, knowledge, and economic opportunities. Why this matters: 🌱 Designed by community, for community – ensuring training is led by First Nations voices 🎣 Culturally grounded learning – merging traditional aquaculture knowledge with modern techniques 💡 Pathways to real jobs – supporting career development and Recognition of Prior Learning "By ensuring training is delivered on our land and in a way that respects our culture, we’re not just teaching skills—we’re opening doors to real economic opportunities for our people." – Brian Tipungwuti, ASC Director & Warankuwu (Pandanus) man from the Tiwi Islands. This project will roll out in two key phases: ✅ Phase 1: Community consultation with Aboriginal corporations, land councils & RTOs. ✅ Phase 2: Development of industry-aligned, First Nations-led training tools. With the @CRC_NA proudly supporting ASC through the Fishing Mentor Program, this initiative is shaping the future of sustainable aquaculture and First Nations leadership in the seafood industry across #NorthernAustralia A big thank you to everyone involved! We look forward to the journey ahead. 🌊💙 Read more 👉crcna.com.au/news/aboriginal… #FirstNations #Aquaculture #CommunityLeadership #SkillsForTheFuture #CulturallyAppropriateTraining

Wanna know something exciting?! 🤭 The CRCNA’s remit to deliver research and development across Northern Australia comes to an end in 2027. All our funds are now committed and the remaining projects are underway. We understand the vital role R&D plays in achieving sustainable and inclusive economic and social outcomes – especially for #NorthernAustralia where development is a bit more unique and innovative💡 A 10-year remit was never going to be enough to make long-term, generational progress! So, our board and executive have been working hard behind the scenes… To maintain momentum and build on the CRCNA’s achievements, expertise and networks, we’re working to establish the Centre for Developing Northern Australia (CDNA). 🎉 The CDNA will strengthen our collective efforts through research, development and extension to help maximise the north’s economic potential, whilst supporting social wellbeing. Read more at lnkd.in/g6zPRkQe The CDNA, like the CRCNA, remains in #NorthernAustralia with a dedicated team of Northern Australian’s working in the best interests for the north. Now, we wanna hear from you! 🔊 🌱 What are the future R, D & E needs of the north? 💦 Where do you see industry and regional opportunities in the north? ☀️ Any other thoughts you’d like to share..
