    From Zenadh Kes to Turtle Island

    In this episode, the Global Hub team travels to Masig Island on Zenadh Kes, also known as Torres Strait, which lies between so-called Australia and the islands of Papua. Zenadh Kes is home to Indigenous Peoples who have lived with a deep connection to land and sea for thousands of years. The effects of climate change, including sea level rises, intense rainfall patterns, and ocean acidification, are severe on Zenadh Kes, threatening ancestral homelands and ways of life.  You’ll hear from two Indigenous Masig Islanders, Josiah Mosby and Yessie Mosby, who share stories about daily life on the island, their experiences with climate change, and their hopes for the future.   This is the first of our two-part journey to Oceania. In our next and final episode of this season, Daphne and Freddie recount their time in so-called Australia and meet with representatives of the First Nations Clean Energy Network.    Listen now and subscribe, so you never miss an episode!   Episode links: Our Islands Our Home campaign: https://ourislandsourhome.com.au/about-the-campaign/ Meet the Torres Strait 8: https://ourislandsourhome.com.au/homepage/#torresstrait8 First Nations Clean Energy Network: https://www.firstnationscleanenergy.org.au/  Find out more about the ⁠⁠⁠⁠Global Hub⁠⁠⁠⁠, the ⁠⁠⁠⁠Catalysts Program ⁠⁠⁠⁠, and our other programming at ⁠⁠⁠⁠indigenouscleanenergy.com⁠⁠⁠⁠, and follow us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter/X⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠!

    Repower Gaza

    "Since October, Israel’s ongoing bombardment of Gaza has destroyed over 70% of all infrastructure, including rooftop solar and power stations. Fuel supplies have been cut and residents lack consistent access to food, water and electricity." (We Are Not Numbers)   This special episode of Decolonizing Power is dedicated to raising awareness for the Repower Gaza project. Daphne and Freddie speak to Walaa Sabah, project manager of We Are Not Numbers (WANN), a youth-led Palestinian nonprofit project in the Gaza Strip. We're also joined by Lauren Mellor, from Original Power in so-called Australia. Repower Gaza is a grassroots initiative led by young Palestinian writers from WANN. The project installs emergency solar kits to enable displaced WANN writers to continue documenting the realities of Gazans on the ground. Amidst the severe humanitarian and energy crisis in Gaza, these solar kits also enable life-saving medical interventions and allow Palestinians to reconnect with lost family members.   Learn more about the impact of the project and the situation on the ground by following We Are Not Numbers on social media.
