ARLA4506: Research Strategies [S2, 2023]
Are urban forest stakeholders more receptive to improved resilience strategies (such as less uniform streetscapes, pre-emptive host species removal and more diverse privately owned trees) as a result of PSHB’s presence in Perth? Abstract Australia’s strict biosecurity regime provides the first line of defence in preventing the entry of pests and diseases. Increased global trade has resulted in invasive species periodically breaching our borders, as evidenced by Polyphagus Shot-hole Borer (PSHB) and Mrytle Rust reaching Western Australia. Both species threaten urban forests (UF).
Box 1: Urban Forest monoculture example
An analysis of peer-reviewed literature identified most UF research still focuses on ecosystem services. Invasive species / UF specific research generally only occurs where infestations are (i.e. international). There is a lag in delivering “research-practice-policy”, so Perth based research may be underway but not yet published. Direct experience with invasive species influences stakeholder support / buy-in, which is generally low otherwise. Knowledge awareness is therefore important as it supports eradication programmes. Despite 85% of UF occurring on private property and the remaining 15% being on public land, most research focuses on the more accessible public data sets. In addition, UF is mostly managed at the municipal level (i.e. LGAs in Australian context) and is not centrally coordinated nor managed consistently. Many studies utilised a socio-ecological approach to organise systems and evaluate change drivers such as invasive species impacts. Finally, tree diversity such as differing age, species and genetic composition is important in increasing UF resilience to pests and diseases. This proposal hypothesises that attitudes to UF composition and threats posed by invasive species can be influenced through direct pest / disease experience and education and that the presence of PSHB in Perth may encourage decision makers / stakeholders to be more receptive to supporting eradication programmes and increasing UF diversity. An in-person public perception survey is proposed to evaluate both residents and other relevant stakeholders understanding of invasive species impacts given PSHB’s real-time presence in Perth and ascertain current attitudes to UF diversity - specifically if there is an increased willingness to modify privately owned gardens and public streetscapes to build resilience. The study intends to use photo-realistic renders depicting healthy and diseased tree species, as well as monoculture vs diverse streetscapes to determine perceptions and attitudes. The study will be performed in both inner and outer metropolitan LGAs. The Western Australian government is mid-way through a three-year eradication strategy for PSHB. There is a real risk the pest will not be contained. As such, Perth will require a “Plan B” comprising mitigative strategies such as diversification. The research proposed will contribute knowledge regarding willingness for change beyond UF practitioners, thereby helping to inform urban forest policy and operational management plans.
Monoculture planting of “Erythrina indica” (Coral tree) providing shade and amenity (ecosystem services) and associated leaf litter on footpath (disservices). Joseph Street, West Leederville, Town of Cambridge. The Town of Cambridge recommends E. indica on Joseph Street to “create a magnificent avenue theme that will add character and colour to your street” (Town of Cambridge, n.d.). This suggests prioritising beautification over ecosystem services or ecological integrity. The streets of the Town of Cambridge are still lined mostly with monoculture / homogenised plantings of similar age. Steenberg et al (2017, 123) indicates neighbourhoods with older houses / higher affluence (i.e. West Leederville) are frequently characterised by large, mature trees that provide high levels of ecosystem services. The Victorian Government (Hortflora n.d.) indicates E. indica is an incorrect naming and should be Erythrina x sykesii, a sterile hybrid clone that is propagated from cuttings (i.e. it has low genetic diversity).
This is elaborated further by the following research objectives” Research objective 1: Ascertain if invasive species are appropriately considered in Perth’s UF strategies / planning documentation . Research objective 2: Determine public and UF practitioners / key decision makers risk understanding and tolerance of invasive species threats (primarily PSHB) and ascertain if visual communication strategies can proactively influence understanding / support for invasive species management strategies. Research objective 3: Determine public and UF practitioners / key decision makers attitudes to UF diversity and ascertain if visual communication strategies can proactively influence understanding / appreciation of urban forest diversity as a method of improving resilience. In addition, evaluate if attitudes differ in older, established and (potentially) more affluent suburbs.
DPIRD (2023-b) has identified Erythrina x sykesii and Erythrina caffra as reproductive host trees of PSHB and Erythrina crista-galli as a non-reproductive host. The genus is an emerging weed in parts of coastal NSW and SE Queensland as it naturalises coastal areas from its clippings.

Brief.
To create a more than-human landscape strategy in the local government area of Victoria Park, that seeks to solve a problem for a non-human resident at this site. The site’s remnant vegetation area (Jirdarup Bushland Precinct) will be the investigation starting point. One, specific non-human resident of the Victoria Park area will be your client. More-than-human strategies will respond to the current, as well as future, conditions in Victoria Park, taking into account changing climate and social conditions. The design process must comprise 1) analysis, 2) strategy, 3) design development and 4) design communication.
Cient.
The native bee, Rozenapis ignita, is the client selected for this folio. Stages 1 and 2 have focused solely on this species, where as Stages 3 and 4 have broadened the focus to native bees of the Perth area in general (including cavity and burrowing bees).
Design response - Making a Beeline to the Remnants.
To provide improved connectivity for native bees between three fragmented remnant banksia woodlands located in the Town of Victoria Park and adjacent City of South Perth. This will support important foraging and reproductive floristic requirements for native bees, while simultaneously ensuring pollination services critical to the survival of the woodland flora. These pollination corridors provide increased cross-pollination, which strengthens the remnant bushland’s genetic diversity, thereby improving resilience. As native bees have a flight range limited to 1km (500m return radius) bee “lines” that provide their specific floristic and nesting requirements at least every 500m between the remnant patches are proposed. Ideally, the key pitstops located at the 500m markers would be human / bee interactive living labs and bee friendly gardens. Temporally, the design would utilise interim infrastructure (bee towers or “motels”) that double as wayfinding guides until mature trees can naturally provide these nesting habitats. These proposed biodiversity positive interventions would require collaboration between both LGAs, key state government agencies whose land access is required and local residents.

Residential gardens and verges
As LGA land is exhausted for planting, private gardens and verges can be utilised. Private gardens can be quite homogenous biotopes. They represent an opportunity to implement diverse, waterwise and bee attracting additional habitats. The ToVP offer verge plant giveaways and $500 grants for gardens. (D Boston, personal communication, May 1, 2023)
Collier golf course
36.4Ha of vegetation patches between fairways. Utilised by Carnaby cockatoos for roosting. Located on Bassendean soil. Established matrix of established trees (e.g. Pinus sp., Eucalyptus sp.)
Jirdarup Bushland Precinct buffer Land surrounding Jirdarup remnant bushland suitable for additional native bee habitat. Land use generally compatible. George St. Reserve is a designated contaminated site (Parcel ID: 13212), as is the Kensington Sand Pit (ID: 71752) which has been remediated for “restricted use”. Harold Rossiter Reserve represents additional potential understory flowering plant habitat.
Nearby Banksia Remnants
Woodland
Remnant bushland located nearby at Hillview Community Park in ToVP (1.6km from Jirdarup) and Goss Ave. in CoSP (2.4km from Jirdarup). Increased cross-pollination strengthens genetic diversity.
Research institutions / Education
Curtin University, Tafe, CSIRO, DBCA, Dept. Agriculture and Food as well as a number of schools occur in the area. Opportunity exists for living lab sites that are monitored and maintained , or even sponsored by these institutions.
Fragmented matrix of suitable habitat and often reduced quality. ToVP anticipates an extra 19,300 dwellings required by 2050, while CoSP estimates 6000. Available public space for planting will plateau.
Niche floristics
Low diversity / exotic urban landscape doesn’t meet floristic requirements. Private property trees continue to be removed (CoSP estimates by 20% in UFS, 2018).
Climate change
Rainfall in the SW has decreased by 15% since 1970’s (BoM, 2022). Climate change will affect vegetation and thermal tolerances of bees (e.g. US study found 1oC increase resulted in 41% decrease in bee abundance (Ayers and Rehan, 2021). Image credit: BOM, 2022.
Flight range
Due to their size native bees are constrained to ~0.5km foraging radius (1km flight range). As an oligolectic forgarer, R. ignita’s specialised flora must be within this flight zone.

Justification for indigenisation of curriculum Indigenisation programs support Indigenous equity, empowerment, self-determination and success as education can be a powerful decolonisation tool² Indigenising curriculum is a core component of University Australia’s “Indigenous Strategy 2022-25”³. Furthermore, indigenising the School of Design’s curricula is an expectation of the peak bodies responsible for accreditation of UWA’s design courses (i.e. AIA, AILA, PIA). Indigenisation is particularly relevant in design given Indigenous Australians were our first designers. As contemporary designers, graduates who have learnt traditional engagement / practices can support the healing of Country through authentic, respectful engagement and purposeful work. Page and Memmot⁴ describe this as “The New Australian Design”, whereby design of our objects, interiors and places are informed by Indigenous knowledges acquired from thousands of years. 3. UWA current state (summary) 3.1 UWA Strategy UWA’s Strategy⁵ summarises the strategic direction and priorities of the university up to 2030. The document’s “defining characteristics” and “strategic themes” support broadscale indigenisation of curricula across the university course offerings and culturally competent graduates. 3.2 Reconciliation Action Plan Reconciliation Action Plans (RAP) assist “businesses to embed the principles and purpose of reconciliation” ⁶. Neither the university nor the School of Design had a RAP at the time of compiling the unabridged report. 3.3 Participation UWA’s Indigenous participation rate is 1.3%⁷, signifying that Indigenous students are still under-represented in higher education given 3.8% of Australians identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander⁸. UWA has identified strategies for improving participation rates as part of the Indigenous Student Success Program⁹. 3.4 Enrolment status Enrolment by discipline type and domestic vs international was evaluated. Analysing enrolment metrics can help inform the design of the revised curriculum (e.g. undergraduate programs have higher numbers of domestic students and generally have more free curriculum capacity for indigenous content). Design schools 3.5 An analysis of four Australian design schools found Architecture typically has less focus on Indigenous knowledges compared to other built environment disciplines, while Landscape Architecture students start with a higher knowledge baseline10. A cursory review of UWA’s current Landscape Architecture indigenisation experience was completed and key observations were collated into a SWOT analysis (also see unabridged report).
Table 1 - Preliminary principles and recommendations Principles
Guidelines
UWA must acknowledge and respond accordingl the premise that Indigenous knowledges are not compartmentalised, nor empirical and may not na fit into university models. •
An indigenisation program should never misappr culture, perpetuate a deficit narrative nor be token
The curriculum should be situated for Wadjuk Noongar Country where UWA resides, as well as Country(ies) where design occurs.
Indigenisation should be Indigenous led (i.e. ”no conversations about us without us”).
Relationships should endure throughout the deliv continuous improvement of the program.
Commitment to the practice of deep listening and reflexive analysis.
The program development / execution should be developed iteratively.
Case studies (summary) 4. Two key case studies informed the proposed principles and process presented within this report. Case study 1 is the UWA Juris Doctor program, which is hosted by the Law school¹. This case study is specific to the Country UWA’s Crawley and Nedland’s campuses are situated upon (i.e. Wadjuk Noongar Boodjar). In addition, both the Law and Design schools work under the same university governance and strategy. This case study could be considered a pilot program for the broader university with many elements such as existing relationships and some of the “Principles of Indigenisation” being potentially transferable. Leveraging off this program may also minimise stakeholder fatigue. Case study 2 comprises “Indigenous inclusion and Indigenising the University” at the University of Auckland¹¹. This case study was selected because it presents a logical eight-point difference between inclusion and indigenisation, which supports transformation from one to both models.
Staff receive comprehensive, ongoing cultural aw training.
Content is embedded and not “bolted on” in auth engaging ways.
Preliminary principles and recommendations 5. A review of relevant indigenisation of curriculum literature has also informed the preliminary principles and recommendations presented in Table 11 3 10 11 12 13 14 15 16. 6. Recommended process A recommended process is proposed below. The co-creation phases of the indigenisation process are expected to be fluid / iterative (figure 1), while prework / implementation / monitoring / continuous improvement phases resemble a more conventional project management approach (figure 2). A full explanation of these processes are provided in the unabridged report .
Associated Indigenous based research must be e sound.
7. Implementation Schedule Given the iterative nature of co-creating principles and redesigning curricula a detailed schedule is not provided. To do so would be pre-emptive and apply a linear western approach to what should be an Indigenous-led journey (a “wavy line”). That said, the indigenisation of UWA’s Juris Doctor program is a fiveyear project. Re-accreditation by AIA, AILA and PIA is due in 2027, which could be a tentative target date for launching.
Culturally inclusive spaces should be available.
8. Conclusion This report provides preliminary principles and recommendations, as well as a proposed process based on analysis of research and case studies. Indigenisation of curriculum should not be a “cookie cutter” of these programs. The School of Design’s program should be situated for the Country that learning and designing is on / about and must be developed respectfully and collaboratively. Students should graduate understanding their role in “giving back” by sensitively applying their Indigenous learning in important reconciliatory and purposeful work.

Remnant Bush
The term “biotope” is derived from the Greek prefixes of bios/life and topos/place. More specifically, a biotope is defined as a section of the earth's surface, either terrestrial or water based, with a similar abiotic environment and associated characteristic plant community.
Shrubbery
This assessment required recognising a number of different urban biotope types, mapping these and analysing their respective ecological character. The option was offered to concurrently utilise the LACH5424 “Landscape as System” Studio site for the biotope assessment. This provided an opportunity to conduct on-ground analysis of a study area we were already designing on. As such, the area chosen for my biotope analysis comprised the Jirdarup bushland precinct in the Town of Victoria Park, as well as nearby Kensington residential properties, Technology Park and the Collier Park Golf Course located in the City of South Perth. Analysing relevant biotopes at these locations provided a deeper understanding of the broader site. This exercise provided important information on existing plant species and associated habitats in the area. The study was a useful tool for identifying focus areas for my studio sites, as well as informing my dismissal of other prospective sites I had been considering. In particular, immersing myself in the beauty of the Jirdarup remnant Banksia bushland prompted me to look further afield at two other nearby remnants. It also afforded a better understanding of the environments on the corridors in-between. Beyond the understanding this study gave me of my studio site, analysing urban biotopes reminded me that plants can be tough little buggers colonising wastelands and obscure places like cracks in pavement to create their own unique habitats that still contribute to biodiversity and provide various ecosystem services in our expanding urban environments.

Vegetation Condition Scale (Keighery scale)
Very good.
Disturbance
Fencing minimises risk of trampling, weed and dieback introduction. Bushfire occurred in February 2016, evidence of some trunk blackening on Eucalyptus species. Animal burrowing and consumption of plant matter noted. Soil and dead plant matter tested negative for dieback in 2017.
Fauna
Evidence of Oryctolagus cuniculus (rabbit) via scats, burrows and Pindone® treated carrots present in quadrat. Birds such as Gymnorhina tibicen (magpie) observed. Site visit outside of diurnal cockatoo roosting / foraging times. Insects such as ants observed.
Evidence of management
Revegetation on fence fringe and weeding efforts by Town of Victoria Park and Friends of Jirdarup Bushland apparent. Other management strategies outside of quadrat comprise fencing, limestone paths, seating, interpretive signage, Phytopthora cinnamomi shoe cleaning stations and bird water stations. Due to this biotope’s endangered status, there is a light touch to the landscape design. The design intent is not to alter the landscape but to protect and restore the vegetation community. A controlled path network and nearby sit spots allow human users to passively enjoy the space.

LACH2050: Plants and Landscape Systems - Plant Visual Diary Conversion [S2, 2022] UWA School of Design end of semester exhibition (1/4 students) WA School of Design 2022 Summer brochure (1/1 students) WA School of Design Instagram Without plants we are nothing. They sustain life. The Landscape Architect has long used plants for aesthetic and amenity benefits. Our profession increasingly uses plants to help resolve anthropogenic problems due to their bioremediation and biosequestration abilities. Botanical illustrations of 50 native and introduced species were hand drawn and incorporated into a Visual Diary. Slowing down to observe and physically touch each plant’s leaves, flowers, seed pod, bark and then capture these components in a drawing provided an opportunity to truly notice the unique details of each of the specified plants. Aside from considering each species individual planting / maintenance requirements, potential design applications and ethnobotanical uses, the drawings provided a beautiful mindfulness experience. Hand drawing teaches the practice of “seeing”. I now find myself really noticing both the beauty and morphological details of each of these plants whenever I see one of them in a garden or a bush setting. A planting strategy and plant palette was also created for a park of my choice. Tara Vista is a small park located in a newer area of West Leederville. The elevated, sloping site overlooks nearby Galup where a massacre of Wadjuk Noongar tragically occurred in 1830. The land at Tara Vista was previously owned by the Sisters of Our Good Shepherd who had homed “destitute girls”. My plant typology and palette vision was to create a naturalistic, gentle space that utilises mostly fine textured vegetation with predominantly yellow accents in remembrance of the historical hurt that occurred at and near this site. The reduction of turf was an additional requirement of the design brief. The updated plant selection compliments the existing trees and is shade, dog and child friendly.
