Earth Matters: Partnership on climate between First Nations and settler women: Potential and opportunities
In what has been called a ‘transformational decade’ towards 2035 emissions reduction targets, this conversation explores how two underrepresented groups in climate change decision making, First Nations and settler women, can form innovative partnerships to amplify, while not conflating, First Nations and all women’s voices to support gender justice and self-determination to transform nation-building towards climate security and long-term human and planetary wellbeing.For this important conversation, WCC Founder, Dr Janet Salisbury, was in conversation with:Bec Blurton (Managing Director, First Nations Affairs and WCC Steering Circle member),Robyn James (Global Leader for Gender Equity at The Nature Conservancy)Terri Reid (Project Coordinator, Wiyi Yani U Thangani Institute for First Nations Gender Justice, ANU).Earth Matters is grateful for this collaboration with the Women's Climate Congress..Earth Matters #1496 was produced by Bec Horridge on the lands of the Walbunja, Batemans Bay, NSW.
