What are cave dwelling Troglodytes? Is it a coincidence that places of cultural significance often seem to be in resource rich areas, for example the planned Yeelirrie Uranium mine? Why should your Financial Adviser be aware of these issues? Join us for this special Ethical Investment Week 2022 interview with Kado Muir.   It's a year since my last podcast discussion with Kado, and a lot has happened in that time. In response to the Juukan Gorge incident, the First Nations Heritage Protection Alliance was formed. In late 2021, Kado helped produce a Toolkit for Investors, designed to contribute to the protection of First Nations cultural heritage which is unique to this country and part of the common legacy of all Australians. Also, since Juukan Gorge, progress has been made in other areas - such as the Taskforce on Nature Based Financial Disclosure. In short, there's a lot happening which will assist both cultural heritage and biodiversity. Kado and I discuss this progress, along with exploring what companies can do to effectively engage with Aboriginal culture.  I hope you enjoy this discussion with Kado Muir.We wish to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land we recorded on, the Wardandi Noongar people. We pay our respects to them and their culture; and to elders past, present and future.  Links:Its-not-worth-wiping-out-a-species-for-the-yeelirrie-uranium-mineTraditional-owners-lose-their-fight-stop-uranium-mine-waMourning-an-aboriginal-deathWhat-are-the-seven-sisters-songlines

In the shadow of the Juukan Gorge disaster, negotiations about the future of the Argyle diamond mine hang in the balance

The world reacted with shock two years ago when it emerged Rio Tinto had destroyed sacred Aboriginal rock shelters at Juukan Gorge in Western Australia. Now, in Murujuga, traditional owners fear 50-thousand year old rock art in the Pilbara is at risk thanks to the expansion of a Woodside gas project.

Two years ago, Rio Tinto destroyed two 46,000-year-old Aboriginal cultural sites in the Pilbara in search of iron ore. The Juukan Gorge blast sparked national outcry and the mining group has sought to right its wrongs by striking a new agreement with the PKKP traditional owners.

Traditional Owners and conservationists are concerned the development of Perdaman Urea Plant in WA will result in further desecration and destruction of Aboriginal Cultural Heritage sites some of which are under consideration for UNESCO World Heritage listing. Traditional Owner Josie Alec says what is taking place on Burrup Peninsula (next to the site of the projected development) is another Juukan Gorge in the making, albeit in slow motion.

Right now, in Western Australia, plans are underway to build Australia's largest new fossil fuel project. If built, Woodside's Scarborough gas plant would contribute significantly to global carbon dioxide emissions. But, it also threatens the existence of some of the oldest - and most significant - rock art in the world.  It's not the first time a mining company has threatened an Indigenous heritage site in WA, just two years ago, Rio Tinto blew up rock shelters at Juukan Gorge.  Today, contributor to The Monthly Jesse Noakes on why the Scarborough project is being called Juukan Gorge in slow motion.  Guest: Contributor to The Monthly, Jesse Noakes.

Western Australia's new Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Bill is slated to pass in state parliament today, despite concerns raised by the United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. A Senate inquiry into last year's Juukan Gorge disaster called for an overhaul of cultural heritage laws, but does the new legislation go far enough?

Western Australia will pass a new Aboriginal Heritage Bill in parliament tomorrow in the wake of the Juukan Gorge disaster in the Pilbara region last year. But the new legislation has outraged some traditional owners and prompted the United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination to take a closer look.

Under WA's new Aboriginal cultural heritage laws, farmers will be required to seek approvals for a range of farm activities, possibility including the construction of dams, tracks and deep ripping. They're some of the concerns raised by the state opposition after being briefed on the Bill earlier this week. The new laws are aimed at preventing another Juukan Gorge disaster, which saw Rio Tinto blast a 46, 000 year old Aboriginal site. The mining industry has welcomed proposed changes to the state's Aboriginal Cultural Heritage laws, saying it sets a high standard for industry in terms of engaging with traditional land owners. One local Aboriginal leader has described the new laws as an opportunity lost. Dwayne Mallard is chair of the Wadjarri Yamatji Aboriginal Corporation. He says the laws do not go far enough to protect significant places, and too much power on final decisions still rests with government.

Last year's destruction of the 46,000 year old rock caves at Juukan Gorge in the Pilbara was felt around the world. Those concerned with protecting Aboriginal cultural heritage in Western Australia say Juukan Gorge wasn't the first event of this kind, and it won't be the last. Hundreds of sites are at risk of harm or destruction right now. Defenders of this cultural heritage are alerting Western Australians to the Jawaren and Garnkiny sites in the East Kimberley; Mt Richardson and Lake Wells in the Goldfields; Burrup and Harding Dam in the Pilbara; and Munday Swamp. But these are just a few. Protectors of Aboriginal heritage here in WA are pointing to the sites that intersect sacred waterways, cave systems, songlines and sites of significance, many with irreplaceable engravings, paintings and artefacts that are tens of thousands of years old. These precious places identified by traditional owners can be legally destroyed, right now, if the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs signs off on it - and it seems this will continue. Traditional owners want to see the Minister's bill, which has been withheld from circulation to all but a few; they want these new laws to give Traditional Owners the final say over sites of significance; and also to meet with the Minister. The Understorey team has requested an interview with Minister Dawson - and have asked for a copy of the proposed legislation...

Hello and welcome to our special Ethical Investment Week (EIW) podcast! The theme for EIW 2021 is Wayfinding for ethical investment. In its simplest definition, wayfinding is about observing the natural world in order to work out your location, orient yourself towards your destination, set a course to get you there, then dynamically respond to signs as you journey. Wayfinding is as relevant for our times as it has been throughout history. By drawing upon ancient wisdom, modern wayfinders hold insights that can make a big difference for ethical investors and a sustainable future. On that basis, who better to talk to about rich Aboriginal cultural traditions than Kado Muir! Kado is Chair of the First Nations Heritage Protection Alliance and the National Native Title Council. He is a Ngalia Traditional Owner and a Wati – a Goldfields Aboriginal cultural and community leader, and an anthropologist/archaeologist with many years' experience working in Aboriginal heritage, language preservation and maintenance, traditional ecological, education and native title research. Kado also operates a number of businesses including an Aboriginal art business, a Sandalwood company, and a heritage consultancy business. He is a long-time activist for bilingual and two way education, environmental and cultural heritage protection and promoting alternative community based enterprises, especially through his PhD university partnerships for research on Wealth in First Nations.On 24 May 2020, Rio Tinto destroyed a site that represented 46,000 years of culture and history for the Puutu Kunti Kurrama and Pinikura (PKKP) peoples of the Pilbara in Western Australia. The blast devastated a place of personal, community, national and international significance. People around the globe responded with shock and outrage. In talking to Kado, there's so much more to the story than this incident. Perhaps it's the straw that broke the camel's back, but we have so much work to do to understand cultural heritage protection. What is Free, Prior and Informed Consent? What do know about the sites we are destroying? I learnt a lot from Kado, and I couldn't let him go without giving us a dreamtime story – so make sure you stick around to the end for that! You can find Kado on LinkedIn & http://www.kadomuir.com.au To learn more about ethical investment week, please visit www.ethicaladvisercoop.com.au   For more information about James Baird and JustInvest Financial Planning see: www.justinvest.net.au  We wish to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land we recorded on, the Wardandi Noongar people.

Western Australian Senator Dean Smith is calling for Rio Tinto to face a judicial inquiry over the destruction of the Juukan Gorge rock shelters. In May 2020, the mining giant blasted two 46,000-year-old rock shelters in WA's Pilbara region, despite traditional owners, warning of the site's cultural significance. A parliamentary into the blast has just concluded saying Rio Tinto's actions were "inexcusable and an affront, not only to the PKKP but to all Australians" and recommends new laws to protect thousands of sacred sites across Australia. Dean Smith was part of that parliamentary inquiry, but says the incident warrants the scrutiny of a judicial inquiry. The Cairns District Court has cleared Queensland pastoralist Scott Harris of breaching cultural heritage protection laws, on his property in the Cape York Peninsula.

Истрага која је уследила након уништавања 46.000 година старих пећина Абориџина у Западној Аустралији, у клисури Џуган (Juukan Gorge) је завршена и препоручена је знатна измена закона који штите света подручја аутохтоних народа.

A federal inquiry into the destruction of the Juukan Gorge rock shelters has recommended urgent changes to cultural heritage legislation to protect sacred sites across the nation. The report comes almost 18 months after mining company, Rio Tinto, blew up the 46,000-year-old caves in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. Jamie Lowe, CEO of the National Native Title Council, gives us his response to the report's findings.

Rio Tinto was widely condemned after it was legally allowed to blow up the 46,000-year-old caves in May 2020.

Queensland will be open by Christmas to vaccinated travellers from interstate COVID hotspots.  A parliamentary inquiry finds deficient safeguards and calls for an overhaul of Australia's Aboriginal heritage laws after the Juukan Gorge destruction. And coalition tensions deepen with no deal yet despite a second day of National Party climate talks, so what price in taxpayer dollars will they extract for their support?

On today's episode of At Close of Business, senior editor Mark Beyer details findings from a parliamentary inquiry reviewing the Juukan Gorge controversy.

The Parliamentary Committee investigating the destruction of the 46,000 year old Juukan Gorge caves by mining giant Rio Tinto has recommended sweeping changes to heritage laws. In its final report, the Committee said responsibility for protecting sacred Aboriginal sites should rest with the Minister for Indigenous Australians, not the Minister for the Environment.

A federal parliamentary committee has recommended new federal cultural heritage legislation to protect sacred sites across Australia.

Last week Ngalia elder Kado Muir addressed the United Nations expert mechanism on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, speaking about Western Australia's outdated Aboriginal Heritage laws, and the state government's failure to redress the problems that allowed Juukan Gorge to be destroyed. Kado Muir's voice joins the Kimberley Land Council, the WA Alliance of Native Title Representative Bodies and Service Providers, the Australian Archaelogical Association, and the Australian Association of Consulting Archaeologists, who are all concerned about what has been called a “façade of modernisation”. Today on Understorey, Adrian Glamorgan brings you ANTAR's John McBain, who adds to these many voices by calling for the McGowan government to act on our shared cultural and human rights obligations. Will Aboriginal people be allowed to speak freely, "straight up," and able to say no? Photo: Juukan Gorge, by Puutu Kunti Kurrama and Pinikura Aboriginal Corporation (arr. A Glamorgan)

After the global outrage at Rio Tinto's intentional destruction of Juukan Gorge, the state Labor government promised new Aboriginal Heritage legislation. Indigenous cultural rights would be respected. But the "new" heritage legislation may say all the right things except where it matters: amounting to no more than the repackaging of the old rights to mining companies. Aboriginal groups may remain effectively gagged. Thus far the Aboriginal Affairs Minister, Stephen Dawson, has declined to meet with the environment movement to listen to these heritage concerns. Archaeologist and heritage specialist Robin Stevens speaks frankly about how we got here, and what we need to do if our state is to genuinely support Aboriginal communities and respect and appreciate their cultural values.

This special episode departs from the usual schedule, as there's a particularly pressing aspect to this one. Dr Anne Poelina is a Nyikina Warrwa (Indigenous Australian) woman who belongs to the Mardoowarra, the lower Fitzroy River in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. She is also Chair of the esteemed Martuwarra Fitzroy River Council. When Anne and I last spoke for the podcast, in Broome a few years ago, I said this: “If anywhere epitomizes the critical time we're in, it's in the spectacular cultural and natural landscapes of her homeland. Almost incredibly, there are 40,000+ fracking wells slated for this area, along with the damming of the Fitzroy River, and more ‘old-model' industrial agriculture. Yet the next economy is also in tow here, and this is where Anne is currently focusing her extraordinary breadth of cross-cultural knowledge and experience.” Three years on and a power of work has been done. This includes the forming of Regenerative Songlines Australia. It's to launch in NAIDOC Week. And while that ‘old industrial model' lurks in the Kimberley, a profound new film screened last week called The Serpent's Tale. It documents the creation of Martuwarra, the National Heritage listed Fitzroy River. And its launch draws attention to an important state government submission process on now, while invoking deeper connection with the River and Country generally. This episode was recorded on 20 May and released on 24 May 2021, the anniversary of the exploding of the Juukan Gorge last year, which destroyed a 46,000-year heritage site. A reminder that the stakes couldn't be higher, in terms of staving off disaster, but also ushering in the emerging new story of connection and regeneration.
