Gulf Savannah Node

Gulf Savannah NRM is the shopfront for the Gulf Savannah Node and they support local livelihoods for current and future generations.

The Gulf Savannah region covers the northern gulf, which is located in the north-west corner of Queensland, just below Cape York Peninsula. The region is defined as a combination of the:

  • Mitchell River Catchment
  • Staaten River Catchment
  • Gilbert River Catchment

 

It is dominated by dry tropical savanna rangelands, however it contains a stretch of Gulf of Carpentaria coastline to the west and wet tropical rainforests to the east.

The Gulf Savannah NRM facilitates community owned outcomes, which balance economic activity, social and cultural interests and environmental values, within the context of maintaining and managing healthy ecosystem functions. Gulf Savannah NRM is a “bottom up” organisation, in that the ideas and projects emanate from residents and community members of the region. This leads to the community, bush, seas and industries remaining healthy and viable for future generations. Click here to view their regional priorities.

If you have any questions relating to drought resilience activities in the Tropical North region, please feel free to contact the Drought Resilience Officer.
