This Thursday May 12 at Nova @unesmartri in Armidale: The Vigil for the Smooth Handfish. A screening about loss, grief, care, the interconnectedness of conservation and radical hope. https://t.co/R5FSWgZWBb ... organised by @WeatheringCows and the @EffectParallel - @UniNewEngland

The Armidale Climate and Health Project's final main event of this current phase is the Home Grown Garden Tour, starting at the Armidale Aboriginal Community Garden: Feb 26 & 27

For more on this topic listen to Gabi and Jen's discussion on the topic available on soundcloud:

From yesterday's Armidale Express, Gabi Briggs, Sujata Allan and Jen Hamilton explore the relationship between climate change & colonisation. They bring a whole range of issues together to get us thinking about how to decolonise climate action...

We walked talked and reflected on how to decolonise climate action in the New England. Thoughts on how to decolonise bush regeneration, agriculture and the University all flowed between us - #cop26 #waterwalks #weatheringwaterways - for more listen to Gabi https://t.co/fipYHmpUrV

93. Emphasizes the important role of indigenous peoples’ and local communities’ culture and knowledge in effective action on climate change, and urges Parties to actively involve indigenous peoples and local communities in designing and implementing climate action

We'll be thinking with and asking how to centre clause 93 of the #GlasgowClimatePact in our action following the summit...(which is what we're already trying to do with this project, but good to read this clause in the pact - needs to be closer to the top!)

#COP26 Creek Walk this afternoon at Lake Zot in Armidale: Decolonising the New England for Climate Justice https://t.co/qirk9VC7h3

Due to severe weather forecast, today's CREEK WALK has been postponed for 1 week until 14th https://t.co/qirk9VC7h3 #armidale #COP26 #weatherwalks #weatheringwaterways

On Sun, a 'slow walk' along a creek in New England, NSW, will mirror another along the Thames. Both will reflect on links b/w colonial violence & climate change, & how healing people+country should be at heart of nation’s response: https://t.co/6nBACa9yZk @WeatheringCows #COP26

This Sunday a Creek Walk in Armidale will be staged in response ...

And then listened to Gabi Briggs discuss colonialism and climate change and Indigenous resistance while trapsing through the streets of London ... https://t.co/teAADOFDGu #weatheringwater #waterwalks

Participants did a cosmic weathering meditation from @AstridaNeimanis & @bicycleuser's Field Guide for Weathering, modified to transport people to Dumaresq Creek in the so called New England and have walkers ride the rapids from the tablelands out to sea

The First London "Creek" Walk from the Holy Well at Australia House, stopping by the Thames to the Underground Fleet River for #COP26 lead by @DrGeorgeAdamson with students at @kclgeography

Anaiwan and Gumbaynggirr woman, Gabi Briggs, chatted to @bicycleuser about how non-Indigenous climate activism can centre Indigenous land and water struggles, slowly. Short versions now available: https://t.co/5AC3gca7f6 funded by @kclgeography for #COP26 edited by @nicole_curby

Over the next two weeks, we're holding a series of Creek and River Walks and related audio interviews will be released for #COP26 . Walking in England and the New England exploring the question: how can we decolonise climate action and centre Indigenous knowledge and sovereignty?

In the lead up to #cop26 and in the wake of Armidale's tornado, @bicycleuser and @AllanSujata from @UniNewEngland write we need global action that centres indigenous knowledge, tackles health injustice and gives power to local community collaborations.

A little group affiliated with ACHP have taken on activating the @SLArmidale food working group as a collective. They met today in Armidale community garden to talk about next steps. Climate and health grow together on the community garden! Collective gardening is the future!
