[Extract] Executive summary The Inspiring Australia strategy is a high-level national strategy for public engagement with the sciences and a key element of Australia's innovation agenda. The Australian government believes that, in order to help the nation 'unlock its full potential', it is necessary to examine those areas which, due to location, may have been disadvantaged in science engagement. The tropical region of Australia is one such region. It requires a different approach, and to this end, the Australian Government has established an Expert Working Group (EWG) focused on science engagement into and for the tropical region of Australia to support implementation of the Inspiring Australia strategy.

In short, this Report: Confirms that there are two options for progressing the integration of Traditional Owner interests in the Reef 2050 Plan. Option 1 (Business As Usual) represents a continuation of the current approach of Government-based review and refinement of the (now 23) Traditional Owner actions in the Reef 2050 Plan. Option 2 (Towards Genuine Co-governance) represents Government taking a far more negotiated approach at the GBR-wide level (and subsequently down to local scales) that applies the principles of Free Prior and Informed Consent. Based on extensive engagement concerning the aspirations of Traditional Owners and their support organisations across the GBR, the overwhelming stated desire and demand is for genuine partnership in the overarching governance of the Reef and far deeper ownership of, and participation in, its active day to day management (Option 2). There is an unambiguous view that the foundations set in the Reef 2050 Plan (Option 1), while a step in the right direction, simply reflect Traditional Owner aspirations in someone else's planning. Meanwhile, a consistent message from Traditional Owners, fuelled by their existing and emerging rights in sea country, is that this more passive form of involvement cannot continue into the future; that a genuine form of agreement making and active implementation (from GBR to local scales) must emerge.
