The program will identify solutions to reduce threats affecting the future of the southern cassowary on Cape York, operating across all land tenures, and will include:

• the establishment of an Indigenous Fire Mentoring Program to support Indigenous people in cultural fire management

• holding meetings with, and providing technical support to, Indigenous land managers

• engagement with non-Indigenous landholders through surveys and action plan development and on-ground works

• identifying how conservation goals might be achieved

• increased community participation by facilitating on-country workshops and community events

• a knowledge survey and reportable sightings will also support increasing knowledge and awareness of the threats.
