Description: This project is funded by La Trobe University and undertaken in collaboration with North East Catchment Management Authority and Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority in Victoria, Australia. The project team acknowledges that the land and waters involved in this research are unceded lands of First Nations peoples.
Everyone relies on the natural environment for their existence, and the natural environment relies on people and their work in natural resource management (NRM). NRM work refers to activities to protect, restore, and manage natural spaces. Such work is under increasing pressure from climate change, which stresses and disrupts NRM work influencing its effectiveness.
The aim of the project is to develop a framework of climate change impacts on NRM work including how work is exposed to climate change, and how these exposures interact with vulnerabilities and sensitivities of work. This understanding will inform the identification of strengths and vulnerabilities of NRM work, and opportunities to shape resilient and adaptive NRM.
Key concepts will be developed:
• Work as purposeful activity.
• NRM as a set of practices.
• Climate change impacts as concurrent, cascading, and compounding.
• Adaptation in relation to NRM work.
The project takes a collaborative and place-based approach and methods include interviews to understand NRM work, case studies to examine climate change impacts, and workshops to develop a framework of impacts and opportunities.

Aims
Purpose: To develop a conceptual framework of the climate change impacts on NRM work and opportunities for resilient and adaptive NRM.
Objective: To conceptualise NRM work as a set of practices that involve ways of knowing, competencies, materials, meanings, rules, and embodiment.
Objective: To understand the impacts of climate change including exposures, vulnerabilities and sensitivities, and impacts from ongoing stressors to extreme events.
Objective: To identify strengths and vulnerabilities of NRM work, and a framework of opportunities to shape resilient and adaptative NRM.
