Traditional Owners We Work With

This map showcases the significant work undertaken by Traditional Owners and Rangers across Australia, and internationally, supported by the Aboriginal Carbon Foundation (AbCF).

By purchasing Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) from AbCF, you are directly supporting Indigenous-led climate solutions with genuine environmental, social and cultural core benefits.

At each location, there is a story of connection, care, and climate action driven by Traditional Owners.

SOME OF OUR PARTNERS INCLUDE

Western Yalanji

Western Yalanji, the Traditional Owners of Wulburjulbur and Palmerville Station, are continuing cultural practice by savanna burning on Country in the Western Yalanji region of central south Cape York to produce carbon credits.

Supporting the right way to burn Country is an ideal way to invest in the Traditional Owners to look after the beautiful Western Yalanji area of Cape York including:

  • Intergenerational knowledge transfer of traditional cultural practices, language revitalisation and environmental knowledge systems.
  • Protect the amazing rock art and increase local biodiversity through the savanna burning carbon farming method.
  • This actively regenerates bush lands and areas damaged by 150 years of gold mining post the gold rush.

Western Yalanji Country is a place of deep cultural strength and natural beauty including ancient rainforests, sandstone plateaus, and winding rivers.

The landscape is alive with songbirds, rare marsupials, and plants found nowhere else on Earth. Some parts, like Wulburjubur (West Quinkan Reserve), have never been grazed and still hold strong, fresh springs and untouched forests. Quinkan is renowned for its rock art and Dreaming stories, but it’s also a vital habitat for plants and animals—some of which are endangered and in need of care. Over 1,200 species have been recorded, including threatened bats, birds, and orchids.

Continuing Cultural Practice in Cape York

Balanggarra and Wanjina-Wunggurr Traditional Owners

The Aboriginal Carbon Foundation is proud to support the Balanggarra and Wanjina-Wunggurr Traditional Owners in the north Kimberley through their savanna burning carbon farming project.

Spanning the Drysdale River and Prince Regent National Parks, these rugged and breathtaking landscapes are protected and nurtured through cultural burning.

Fire, when used the right way, does more than reduce emissions. It also:

  • Protects sacred rock art and significant sites
  • Preserves rare and endangered native species
  • Revitalises language, culture, and identity
  • Connects Traditional Owners to Country
  • Reduces the intensity of wildfires
  • Strengthens intergenerational knowledge sharing

This is a carbon project grounded in Lore and Law.

These ACCUs represent more than carbon offsetting – they’re an investment in cultural resilience and environmental regeneration while delivering social and economic empowerment.

Each credit purchased supports jobs, training and wellbeing for more than 1,200 Traditional Owners from Balanggarra and Wilinggin (Wanjina-Wunggurr) communities – including Kalumburu, Imintji, Dodnun, and Ngallanggunda.

These burns reduce greenhouse gas emissions, help native species thrive, and allow Rangers to access and care for sacred sites far from community.

The result? A landscape that flourishes – with more biodiversity, more cultural strength, and more people walking proudly in both worlds.
