UN win for Torres Strait Islanders on climate change generates hope at COP27

After successfully challenging the Australian government at the UN on failure to act on climate, Torre Strait Islander claimants have been invited to various events as part of the COP27. Their landmark victory is generating a lot of interest and hope. “We are proud in this area that this has opened the door for other people, all other communities who are suffering through climate change, who haven’t’ contributed anything and yet find themselves in the frontline,” says Yessie Mosby.
