With rising petrol costs disproportionately affecting First Nations communities, particularly those in remote regions, the cost of getting mob to this year's ANFA Gathering in regional South Australia will be significant. We are asking for donations to support the transport and travel expenses to help these representatives make it to the meeting.
What is ANFA?
Formed in 1997, the Australian Nuclear Free Alliance brings together Aboriginal people and relevant civil society groups concerned about existing or proposed nuclear developments in Australia, particularly on Aboriginal homelands. The late Uncle Kevin Buzzacott was a co-founder and first president of ANFA, a position now held by Aunty Sue Coleman-Haseldine.
The Alliance provides a forum for sharing knowledge, skills and experience. It is an opportunity to come together and find strength through our shared aims to protect Country and culture from nuclear developments. The Alliance helped to build the successful campaign to stop the Jabiluka uranium mine in the Northern Territory, and proposed national nuclear waste dumps in South Australia and Muckaty in the NT. Currently, Aboriginal communities face a wave of uranium exploration, rehabilitation and remediation of former mine sites, several proposed new uranium mines, and the threat of AUKUS nuclear waste dumping.
Please support representatives from nuclear-affected First Nations communities to travel to the annual ANFA gathering.
