The Role of First Nations Communities in the Clean Energy Transition

Australia has all the ingredients for a green industrial revolution; abundant rare minerals, plentiful wind and sun, manufacturing capabilities, while Sweden is a global leader in green industry practices and production.
But how can First Nations communities participate in the clean energy transition?

This talk will unpack how Sweden and Australia can better balance the competing interests between the 'green gold rush' and the interests of First Nations communities.

This is part of a series of webinars presented by the Nordic Policy Centre at the Australia Institute, as part of Nordic Talks.
Join: Jenny Wik Karlsson, CEO & Senior legal adviser at Sámiid Riikasearvi; Chris Croker, Managing Director, Impact Investment Partners and First Nations Clean Energy Network Steering Group; Rod Campbell, research director at the Australia Institute and host and deputy director Ebony Bennett for a timely discussion.

Date of the event: 15 March 2023, 6pm AEDT / 8am CET
