The AIATSIS submission to the Inquiry into Australia's Biodiversity in a Changing Climate raises 3 key points for consideration by the House of Representatives Standing committee on Climate Change, Environment and the Arts:
- The effects of climate change on biodiversity will affect Indigenous communities, their cultures and their economies
- Current governance arrangements on native title lands and waters are not adequate to meet the challenges of conserving biodiversity in a changing climate
- Mechanisms to enhance community engagement.
