Were you on the red carpet at the First Nations Clean Energy Symposium? 

Some 450 people attended our gathering of First Nations leaders, Traditional Owners, communities, government, unions, academics, community organisations, industry and allies driving real outcomes for First Nations in Australia’s clean energy transition.

We’ve now published photos and the final report from our 3rd First Nations Clean Energy Symposium - Powering On! held from 13-15 August 2025 on Kabi Kabi country. 

This Symposium was about the doing — about showing up, sharing knowledge, learning from each other, working on the challenges and building on the work we are already doing together.

You can access the photos here.

Symposium dinner

The Symposium dinner was a highlight, offering a unique and meaningful evening of connection, celebration, and culture. See photos taken at the dinner where we also had a Red Carpet here.

Art exhibition

The special in-house Kabi Kabi art exhibition facilitated by the Sunshine Coast Council and Caloundra Regional Gallery was one of the highlights. A big thank you to all the artists involved. 

Entertainment

And thank you to the Gubbi Gubbi Dance troupe. The stories shared and the dancing swept us over country and gave us entry to history and place.
