Key insights In this case study, Traditional Owners in the Great Barrier Reef identified that protecting what is left of Indigenous material culture and socio‐cultural relationships provides the best approach to climate adaptation planning. Protecting what is left supports decolonising and strengthens Indigenous customary practices and governance, thereby supporting their strategies for cultural renewal and survival.
