We are so excited to release the full (draft) program for the People’s Blockade! This seven day program to be held on Awabakal and Worimi lands and water, is jam-packed with live music, beach activities, workshops, forums and more.
The program in Muloobinba/Newcastle is top-notch, but we’re equally as excited about the final days of this 10 days of action – the Canberra Wave against coal and gas, including an epic 2-day occupation of Parliament House Lawns. Stay tuned for more details on the Canberra Wave program.
