Indigenous knowledge emphasises the importance of cultural connections between humans and the biophysical world. In the face of threats to the maintenance and transfer of Indigenous knowledge, novel approaches such as seasonal calendars are emerging as tools to share knowledge and guide management of natural and cultural resources. The renewal of Indigenous cultural fire management in southeast Australia provided an opportunity to explore whether the co-production of a fire and seasons calendar, using Western and Indigenous knowledges, can support cultural fire management. We present a case study of cross-cultural collaboration between scientists and the Banbai Aboriginal rangers at Wattleridge Indigenous Protected Area, New South Wales. We reviewed literature from various disciplines (archaeological, ethnohistorical, Indigenous and ecological) and undertook participatory action research and interviews to collate relevant information. This was synthesised in Winba = Fire, the Banbai Fire and Seasons Calendar, which is used by the Banbai rangers to guide cultural burning, share cross-cultural knowledge and increase awareness of Indigenous cultural fire management. The process of co-producing knowledge, revitalising culture, caring for Country, working together and supporting self-determination is relevant for many Indigenous communities around the world.

共同制作火灾和季节日历，以支持更新的土著文化火灾管理

本土知识强调了人类与生物物理世界之间文化联系的重要性。面对对土著知识的维护和转移的威胁，季节性日历等新方法正在成为分享知识和指导自然资源和文化资源管理的工具。澳大利亚东南部土著文化火灾管理的更新为探索利用西方和土著知识共同制作火灾和季节日历是否可以支持文化火灾管理提供了机会。我们展示了科学家与新南威尔士州沃特里奇土著保护区的班拜土著护林员之间跨文化合作的案例研究。我们回顾了来自不同学科（考古学、民族历史、土著和生态）并进行参与式行动研究和访谈以整理相关信息。这是合成在Winba = Fire，半白火和季节日历，半白护林员使用它来指导文化燃烧，分享跨文化知识并提高对土著文化火灾管理的认识。共同生产知识、振兴文化、关心国家、共同努力和支持自决的过程与世界各地的许多土著社区息息相关。
