To celebrate National NAIDOC Week 2021, the Indigenous Peoples' Organisation and Better Futures Australia hosted a webinar series entitled 'Heal Country, Heal Climate'.

This webinar is the third in the series, Healing our Lands, chaired by Dr Virginia Marshall. Speakers include:

  • Anthony Watson — The impact of resource extraction on the Kimberley
  • Kado Muir — Protecting our Cultural Heritage-Lessons from the Juukan Gorge Caves
  • Adrian Burragubba — Wangan and Jagalingou & Native Title, where are the rights of Traditional Owners?

The discussion explores ways of collectively looking after country and taking ownership of our collective futures. Speakers share insights to the national treasure we share in the world’s oldest living Indigenous culture, and facilitate the exchange of unique Indigenous land and water knowledge systems to inform Australia’s climate change response.
