"First Nations peoples have been present on the Australian continent for more
than 65,000 years. During this time, they have managed to develop and maintain
continuous, unbroken connections with the land, water and sky.
Understanding the deep interrelatedness between humans and their (human and
nonhuman) kin and ancestors instilled a sense of responsibility, through
custodianship of their environment. The aim of this was to survive, and to
promote a sense of ecological and cosmological balance.
Indigenous Australian spiritualities understand this balance, which is
essential to living in harmony with all things in creation.
More than two-thirds of young Australians are experiencing eco-anxiety, while
almost half of Australians believe our country is in “decline”. First Nations
spiritualities may have some answers."
