Indigenous groups from around Australia have heard of the growing opportunities available to boost a raft of cultural, environmental and economic benefits through the carbon market at the inaugural National Indigenous Carbon Forum hosted by ICIN last week. 

More than 250 people gathered online over two days to hear speakers from across the sector, as part of North Australia Savanna Fire Forum and the inaugural National Indigenous Carbon Forum. 

The Clean Energy Regulator’s Jennifer Bradley told the forum about the Federal Government’s priorities for creating new methodologies that assess and award carbon credits. 

“Last year, the regulator developed new methods for blue carbon and soil carbon. I thought these two might be of keen interest for this audience,” Ms Bradley said.
