A leading priority for NSW’s decarbonisation plans is engaging Aboriginal communities. This project will generate policy recommendations on how Aboriginal land holders can be better supported to participate in renewable energy efforts, as one potential pathway towards achieving climate resilience and generating economic opportunity. This work is underpinned by longstanding commitment and engagement with the Aboriginal Land Council network and with government in order to advance Aboriginal interests in climate resilience and energy transition.
