Divers for Climate

Divers for Climate acknowledge Indigenous and First Nations people as the first custodians, scientists and explorers of the ocean, and recognise their continuing connection with the land and sea. We recognise that Indigenous people are disproportionately bearing the brunt of ocean climate impacts and must play a key role in solutions. We commit to listening to, learning from and amplifying Indigenous knowledge and wisdom in all our endeavours. Divers for Climate was inspired by and created on the land and sea country of the Gimuy Walubarra Yidinji, Yirriganydji and Gunggandji people. We pay our respects to their elders past, present, and emerging.​​
