In this episode, the Global Hub team travels to Masig Island on Zenadh Kes, also known as Torres Strait, which lies between so-called Australia and the islands of Papua. Zenadh Kes is home to Indigenous Peoples who have lived with a deep connection to land and sea for thousands of years. The effects of climate change, including sea level rises, intense rainfall patterns, and ocean acidification, are severe on Zenadh Kes, threatening ancestral homelands and ways of life.
You’ll hear from two Indigenous Masig Islanders, Josiah Mosby and Yessie Mosby, who share stories about daily life on the island, their experiences with climate change, and their hopes for the future.
This is the first of our two-part journey to Oceania. In our next and final episode of this season, Daphne and Freddie recount their time in so-called Australia and meet with representatives of the First Nations Clean Energy Network.
