Country, Climate, Colonialism (2023)
In 2023, the Australian Centre’s Critical Public Conversations webinar series will focus on the relationship between Country, Climate, Colonialism. The series seeks to interrogate the settler state’s incapacity to manage the ecology of this continent and will highlight the ways in which First Nations care for, and obligations to, Country are inextricably bound to questions of sovereignty. The webinar series will showcase research and activism that explores what it means to care for Country and do environmental work in the context of ongoing colonial occupation.
