The Australian Nuclear Free Alliance brings together Aboriginal people and relevant civil society
groups concerned about existing or proposed nuclear developments in
Australia, particularly on Aboriginal homelands. Uncle Kevin Buzzacott
was the founder and president of ANFA, alongisde Auntie Sue Coleman-
Haseldine.
The Alliance provides a forum for sharing of knowledge, skills and
experience. It is an opportunity to come together and find strength
through our shared aims to protect country and culture from nuclear
developments. The Alliance helped to build the successful campaign to
stop the Jabiluka uranium mine in the Northern Territory, and more
recently, proposed national nuclear waste dumps in South Australia and
Muckaty in the NT. Currently, Aboriginal communities face a wave of
uranium exploration, rehabilitation and remediation of former mine
sites, several proposed new uranium mines, and with AUKUS are anticipating yet another proposed national
nuclear waste dump.
