The ceremony was held on Dr Yibarbuk's Country in Maningrida, and attended by his family members, colleagues and representatives from Charles Darwin University. The ceremony was an interesting mix of university rituals and robes worn in the hot sun together with Bininj families and culture, all set to a beautiful backdrop at Djinkarr. There was even orchestral music!

The Emissions Reduction Assurance Committee (ERAC) is reviewing the soil carbon method - seeking submissions
ERAC is seeking submissions to inform a review of the Soil Carbon Method. This review will assess the compliance of the method with the Offset Integrity Standards, as well as factors such as current and likely future project uptake, abatement potential, additional activities and measurement approaches. Feedback received through this consultation process will also inform the development of the proposed Integrated Farm and Land Management Method. Have your say by 11th April 2025:

ICIN was pleased to partner with UBCO Electric Utility Vehicles on an exciting giveaway. Thank you to all of the excellent entries, please view a selection of them on our website, all of which have been published with permission from the creators and participants.
Following an independent judging process, the winning entry was decided: Wunambal Gaambera Aboriginal Corporation, with the video filmed and edited by Jazzlyn Phillips.
Getting the electric motorbike from Darwin to Wunambal Gaambera Country involved an 830 kilometre truck journey to Kununurra followed by a one hour planeto Mitchell Plateau.
