This podcast episode “Riding the Tides of Justice: Indigenous Sovereignty Across the Pacific” explores the rising global movement for Indigenous sovereignty, sparked recently by Senator Lidia Thorpe’s powerful call for land justice during King Charles III’s visit to Australia. It delves into how this cry resonates across the Pacific, connecting global demands for Indigenous land rights with local traditions of stewardship. Highlighting discussions from last week’s CHOGM in Samoa, the podcast emphasizes the importance of balancing economic growth with cultural preservation, advocating for equitable frameworks where traditional landowners are true partners in development. Through storytelling and thoughtful reflections, the podcast invites listeners to consider how the Pacific can lead by example in fostering development partnerships and hybrid compensation frameworks that prioritise sustainable, inclusive growth that honours both heritage and progress.
