The Kati Thanga - Lake Eyre Basin is emerging as a major state and national environment issue. This is important for LEAN - Labor's Environment Action Network - Townsville branch as the upper basin extends into the Northwest Minerals province where expanded mining for new economy minerals will take place.
The meeting will be held at James Cook University on April 5, starting 4pm. It will provide a good opportunity to hear First Nations' perspectives on this key issue - The Keating Government tried to achieve a World Heritage nomination for Kati Thanga but the initiative was dropped with the unfortunate election of the Howard Government in 1996.
