Walanbaa Ngiiyani | Stronger Together: Sydney / Gadigal Premiere

Walanbaa Ngiiyani | Stronger Together is a 35 minute documentary on the disastrous impacts of coal and gas extraction on communities around Australia and the Pacific.

A one-of-a-kind trip to Gomeroi Country brings together a motley crew of school students, Pacific Climate Warriors and Gomeroi First Nations Custodians, as they share powerful stories of resistance and the devastating impacts the coal and gas industry is having on Country and climate.

The film follows Gabby, Karra and six school strikers as they get up close with the ancient lands and waters of the Gomeroi people in northwest New South Wales, and witness first hand the destruction being wrecked by mega coal mines and gas wells.

As they stand together to protect Country and climate and build a powerful shared resistance, incredible bonds of solidarity are formed and we see that in the fight for climate justice, we are walanbaa ngiiyani - stronger together.

Join our screening of this important film on Tuesday 21st May at Dendy Cinema Newtown.

The screening starts at 7pm and will be followed by a panel discussion featuring documentary stars Karra Kinchela (Gomeroi Custodian, Lock the Gate) and Jo Sikulu (350 Pacific), plus more to come!

Move Beyond Coal

Move Beyond Coal is big, bold, new people-powered movement to solve Australia's biggest contribution to climate change. We're building on the successes and lessons of #StopAdani to move Australia beyond coal – starting with ending funding for coal expansion.

Our mission is to stop new coal mines and expansions NOW, and phase out all coal mining by 2030, solving Australia’s biggest contribution to the global climate crisis.

We are an Australian-based movement, made up of diverse people and communities, taking action in our own backyard to solve the global climate crisis by phasing out the most polluting coal export industry on Earth.

We believe in the power of people to make transformative change, and we hold justice and solidarity at the centre of everything we do. We can only transform the unjust systems that caused the climate crisis by standing together with communities on the frontlines – starting with respecting the sovereignty of the First Nations people of this land.
