The Key to Solving Climate Change May Lay in Indigenous Wisdom

In the Kimberley region of Western Australia, Indigenous First Australians are partnering with researchers and together they are pioneering a revolutionary approach to environmental planning and management, called ‘Caring for the River Country’. By blending ancient wisdom, Indigenous First Law and science with Western science, they're reimagining our relationship with nature and offering a blueprint for global climate action. Professor Anne Poelina at the University of Notre Dame Australia argues that the key to our planet's future may lie in Indigenous knowledge and wisdom, and ways of conceiving of our natural environment as kin.
