Welcome to Friends of the Earth Australia

Friends of the Earth Australia is a flat, non-hierarchical organisation campaigning for environmental protection, social justice and economic welfare for all people.

We work with the community to communicate, raise awareness, put forward alternatives and take action to preserve the natural environment in Australia and work towards a sustainable and empowering future.

Friends of the Earth Australia meet and work on stolen lands of Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander people and respect that sovereignty of those lands was never ceded. We pay respect to Elders, past and present, and acknowledge the pivotal role that Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander people continue to play within the Australian community.

Friends of the Earth Australia is a member of Friends of the Earth International- the world's largest grassroots environmental network, uniting 77 national member groups and some 5,000 local activist groups on every continent.
