Expressions of interest are now open for our fourth First Nations PowerMakers program taking place 27–29 October 2026 in Mulubinba (Newcastle, NSW).

Since launching in 2023, PowerMakers has become Australia's leading First Nations clean energy leadership program, with almost 100 First Nations leaders completing the program to-date and joining a growing national network of individuals working to improve the outcomes for our communities.

PowerMakers is designed by and for First Nations people. It's a hands-on program that builds the knowledge, skills and confidence to help communities lead, participate in and benefit from clean energy projects on Country.

You'll learn from First Nations leaders and industry experts from Australia and Canada while connecting with other emerging leaders from across the country.

Whether you're interested in community energy, renewable energy development, advocacy, negotiations or creating economic opportunities for your community, PowerMakers will give you the practical tools and connections to help make it happen.

This project from the Research Unit for Indigenous Language aims to provide fifty words in Indigenous languages of Australia The map is intended to be a useful resource for schools and educational organisations to learn 50 words in their local languages, and for the general public to discover the diversity of languages around Australia.

The words provided on this site are not to be used for commercial purposes. Permission and guidance of local communities should always be sought before using Aboriginal languages.
