Livestreamed panel discussion
Friday 26th July 1pm-2.30pm
Tune into this panel discussion to hear from First Nations leaders and experts on the different ways we can achieve water justice in the Murray-Darling Basin.
First Nations have cared for the rivers, wetlands, fish and birds of the Murray-Darling Basin for thousands of generations. But today, they own less than 0.2% of water rights. Governments have pledged millions of dollars to address this inequity, but most has never been delivered. While rivers in the Basin continue to languish, Traditional Owners are still locked out of managing their ancestral lands and water. Decades of water reform have failed to deliver for First Nations. It’s well past time for real water rights and water justice.
Hosted by Sustainable Living in the Mallee and Friends of Nyah Vinifera Park with support from Environment Victoria and Murray Lower Darling Rivers Indigenous Nations.
