Webinar: Rights of Nature in Australia

Michelle Maloney and former Western Australian MP Diane Evers discuss advancing Earth-centered law in Australia. Maloney, co-founder of the Australian Earth Laws Alliance, emphasizes integrating Indigenous knowledge and restructuring legal systems to prioritize ecological well-being. Evers highlights her legislative efforts, notably introducing the “Rights of Nature and Future Generations Bill” to the Western Australian Parliament, aiming to recognize nature’s legal rights. Together, they advocate for systemic change through legal reform, community engagement, and political action to embed ecological values into Australian governance.
