Dr Emma Lee Source: SBS
Dr Emma Lee, a Tasmanian Aboriginal woman becomes the first Indigenous Australian to co-author a set of guidelines for International Union for the Conservation of Nature - one of the bodies that advises the United Nations on nature conservation. The guidelines encourage individuals, organisations, businesses and governments to look at the value of a piece of land or sea, and acknowledge the cultural or spiritual value it may have to the Indigenous people of that land.
