Following successful roundtables in the Pilbara and Alice Springs with up to 100 people attending, the next roundtable is now planned for First Nations people in Queensland, to be held in Cairns on 19-20 June 2023.

This week, First Nations communities got involved in a community roundtable about energy transition in Alice Springs.

The reality of remote living, with a lack of reliable power and water supply, sits in stark contrast to the billions of dollars being poured into mining projects across Australia each year. 

In Alice Springs, a community roundtable will examine how Indigenous people and communities can participate in and benefit from the clean energy transition.

Ensuring First Nations people and communities participate in and benefit from the clean energy transition is the focus of a community roundtable in Alice Springs on 16-17 May 2023.

The first of many roundtables feeding into the co-design of the Federal government’s First Nations Clean Energy Strategy was held on 27-28 March 2023 in Port Hedland, Western Australia, with over 70 people in attendance.

The Northern Territory has some of the strongest solar radiation in the world and there is clearly much potential to develop clean energy projects on First Nations titled lands. 

The second roundtable to discuss the barriers and opportunities for First Nations people in Australia's clean energy transition is being held in Alice Springs on 16 - 17 May 2023.

How should Indigenous people participate in the clean energy transition? Steering Group member Ruby Heard highlights the essential criteria for an equitable transition.

A round table discussion held last week has paved the way for a clear clean energy future for First Nations communities in the Pilbara region of Western Australia.
