Facilitated by Rangelands NRM, each year the members of the Dampier Peninsula Fire Working Group come together in late March to discuss their burn plans for the coming season.
The group, established in 2016 in response to sequential years of extreme fire seasons (see video), is led by Indigenous Ranger groups made up of Bardi Jawi, Nyul Nyul, Yawuru, and other fire managers from a range of stakeholders; Kimberley Land Council, station owners, relevant government departments, WWF and the Shire of Broome.
