Walking together: Treaty + the Environment

For the first time in our country’s history, First Peoples and a state government have reached a Treaty agreement.

This moment recognises Aboriginal peoples’ enduring relationship with their lands, waters, cultures and communities, and affirms their right to shape decisions about the future. So what does Treaty mean for the environment, for Country, and for climate justice?

Join us online for Walking Together: Treaty and the Environment, a conversation hosted by Environment Victoria, Friends of the Earth, 350.org, Common Threads, the First Peoples’ Assembly of Victoria and Environmental Justice Australia.

When

Tuesday October 7, 2025, 7-8pm AEDT

Where

Online via Zoom, RSVP for the link

WHAT WILL BE EXPLORED: 

• How Treaty connects to protecting Country, water and climate
• What “land back” and “water back” mean in practice, with stories from Victoria and beyond
• How First Peoples’ leadership and decision-making strengthen environmental action

You’ll have the chance to hear directly from First Nations leaders, ask questions, and learn how you can stand with communities to advance Treaty in Victoria in the months ahead.
