Australia is a land rich in natural resources but the relationship between mining companies, government and traditional landowners has not always been easy.

More than 20% of our country is in the hands of First Nations People who seek a balance between mining activity and what’s best for local communities.

There are opportunities to grasp, challenges to overcome, and important lessons to learn – including from the destruction of Juukan Gorge.

Western Australia is a powerhouse of mining in this country and the NAPC has a rare opportunity for you to hear from those right at the heart of the issue in that state.
