Conservation Efforts in the Daintree Rainforest

Efforts are being made to preserve the Daintree Rainforest, the world's oldest tropical rainforest, to protect its biodiversity and prevent further degradation. Indigenous Australians, particularly the Eastern Kuku Yalangi people, have been granted joint management with the Queensland Government over the world heritage site, marking progress in reconciliation and cultural preservation. Initiatives like Halfcutt focus on protecting specific areas of the Daintree not currently under world heritage protection.
