'If you only work on adaptation, you’re only working on one side of the coin. If you don’t include mitigation, you’re always going to be one step behind'. - @SashaRPurcell, Feminist Foreign Policy session

'Indigenous people in many ways have been oppressed as objects of Western research but not the agents of outcomes. The theories that inform them & questions they generate must be carefully & critically considered. Put another way, it must be decolonised.
@SashaRPurcell #ACFID2022

Yesssss I loved this session. Sasha’s comments on decolonising research ensuring that Indigenous knowledges are both valued and told by and for Indigenous Peoples was so powerful.

The Torres Strait 8 have won the landmark UN case!!

This week United Nations Human Rights Committee found that the Australian Government is violating its human rights obligations to Torres Strait Islanders by failing to act on climate change. #INDIGENOUS #HumanRights #Law

#IWD2022. Approached by top tier law firm to speak, as an #INDIGENOUS woman, at the event on a topic I would need to do research and miss work. I asked for an honorarium fee & never heard from the law firm again. The irony, that they think we should still work for free #law
