BACKGROUND INFORMATION

AELA is holding Australia's first Rights of Nature Tribunal in Brisbane on 22nd October 2016. This citizen's tribunal will hear cases presented by citizens and Earth lawyers concerned about the destruction of ecosystems in Australia. To support the Tribunal and promote cultural engagement with the emerging movement around the Rights of Nature, AELA is coordinating a national arts celebration - 'Rights of Nature Australia 2016' or 'RONA16'. Our intention is to blend the creative re-interpretation of environmental governance with cultural responses to the rights of the natural world to flourish.
