Tuesday 9 March 2010

Join Friends of the Earth National Liaison Officer, Natalie Lowrey and local community to talk about building a Friends of the Earth local group in Fremantle.

WHO ARE FRIENDS OF THE EARTH?
Friends of the Earth Australia is a federation of autonomous local groups who are working towards an environmentally sustainable and socially equitable future. FoE Australia sees that pursuing environmental protection is inseparable from broader social concerns, and as a result uses an environmental justice perspective in its campaigning. A strong social perspective means FoE is well placed to develop alliances at the grassroots level with other organisations and communities.
