There, the iron-red soils of the Pindan Country connect forests and the Great Sandy Desert, all bracketed by a vast stretch of Indian Ocean coastline. Its springs and wetlands host migratory birds.

Over the past 30 years, the Karajarri secured legal recognition of their claims to the land, later establishing an Indigenous Protected Area (IPA), Karajarri Pirra Ngurra, that now covers an area of land nearly the size of Rwanda in the state of Western Australia. They also developed a ranger program that draws on long-held cultural knowledge of the landscape.<\/p>\n<p>In March 2026, the Karajarri people dedicated Karajarri Jurarr Ngurra, Australia\u2019s first \u201cSea Country\u201d IPA, comprising 237,489 hectares (nearly 587,000 acres) of marine and coastal ecosystems.

According to the Indigenous-governed nonprofit Country Needs People, IPAs account for 54% of that goal. But the organization\u2019s CEO, Paddy O\u2019Leary, says the role of Australia\u2019s extensive IPA network goes beyond meeting those goals.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe magic sauce in an IPA comes from creating a model that, done well, will put Traditional Owners in a much more proactive position in terms of managing their Country,\u201d O\u2019Leary says.<\/p>\n<p>The relationship between Indigenous Australians and the land they live on is well known, he adds. \u201cIt\u2019s historical fact and a truth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s so many advantages to making that connection more recognized, more seen and more respected,\u201d O\u2019Leary says.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_319454\"><a href=\"https:\/\/imgs.mongabay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/05\/14120202\/b.-glyall-via-iNaturalist.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"external\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imgs.mongabay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/05\/14120202\/b.-glyall-via-iNaturalist.jpg\" alt=\"The Eighty Mile Beach is a nesting site for the flatback turtle. \" width=\"2048\" height=\"1366\"  ><\/a><figcaption>Flatback turtles nest on, and live off, the coast of Malumpurr, also known as Eighty Mile Beach.

But the designation of an IPA is more than that for Australia\u2019s Indigenous peoples, including Aboriginal groups like the Karajarri as well as distinct peoples from the Torres Strait off the country\u2019s northern coast, he adds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a stamp that puts a distinctive Indigenous view on how a given area should be managed,\u201d O\u2019Leary says. \u201cIt centers Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as not just participants or people to be consulted, but decision-makers and key drivers of the management.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The IPA tag also provides a pathway for these groups to collaborate with outsiders, he adds. \u201cIt makes visible to other stakeholders who might want to collaborate the set of priorities that local Traditional Owners want, and it combines both biodiversity and cultural values in management as well as a governance framework that is built \u2014 in a good IPA, should be built \u2014 from the ground up by the Indigenous community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But building that foundation takes significant time and resources, O\u2019Leary says.

About a decade later, after government recognition, the Karajarri started their ranger program and began the consultation process for an official IPA. In 2014, the Karajarri people declared their IPA, covering <u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ktla.org.au\/karajarri-indigenous-protected-area\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"external\">almost 2.5 million hectares<\/a><\/u> (6.1 million acres) of land in the Kimberley. Sustainable resource use is allowed over the vast majority of the land, while part is managed with the same protections as a national park.<\/p>\n<p>The state of Western Australia supports the Karajarri Ranger program, which serves as a fundamental cog in the functioning of an IPA and a source of employment for communities, Ala\u2019i says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s impossible to separate Indigenous ranger programs from IPAs,\u201d he adds. Ala\u2019i is not Karajarri; instead, he came to his work on the IPA from a background in conservation biology.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I heard about ranger programs, I was like, \u2018Oh, that\u2019s the thing,\u2019\u201d he tells Mongabay. \u201cIt\u2019s that intersection for me of the environment and social community development, capacity building [and] mentoring.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Matilda Murley, a marine invertebrate ecologist and research associate at the University of Western Australia, has spent nearly a decade collaborating with the Karajarri people, working with the rangers on a Karajarri-led project to monitor their shoreline ecosystem in ways that make sense for both their culture and biodiversity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey are the cultural custodians being paid to look after Country,\u201d says Murley, who is not Karajarri. \u201cThey\u2019re looking out for the community priorities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For Western science, the Kimberley coast has largely been a blank spot on the map, with few details about what exists there.
