4	WHY ARE WE DOING THIS	To embed anti-racism work within the Australian climbing industry and will give the community an educational space to begin their solidarity work. It is our commitment to create a non-judgemental space for everyone on how to be actively anti-racist in the climbing community.

9	We want to acknowledge that we’re living, playing, climbing and recreating on stolen lands. Land that always was and always will belong to the Aboriginal people, the Traditional Custodians of the land. There is no denying that the lands that we recreate, climb, live and work at are on stolen lands, with ongoing history of genocide and displacement of the Indigenous communities. Reparations MUST be paid as settlers and especially colonisers that do not own this land. Climbing on First Nations land is a privilege, an entitlement and it must be acknowledged that self-determination for how the Traditional Owners would want the land to be managed, a priority. The following lists Indigenous led organisations that you can donate or set-up funding on a monthly basis to.

11	ORGANISATION	DETAILS	LOCATION
12	Pay the Rent https://paytherent.net.au/	Paying the Rent is about non-Indigenous people honouring the Sovereignty of Aboriginal people; it is a somewhat more just way of living on this stolen land. Paying the Rent is about rent paid. It is not charity, fundraising or a donation. Pay the Rent transfers money/wealth from grassroots to grassroots; it doesn’t involve governments or big business. It is not enough for non-Indigenous people to only Pay the Rent. Treaty, advocacy, and solidarity with actions to promote, defend and support land justice are also necessary.	Kulin Nation (VIC)

20	Aboriginal Legal Service NSW & ACT https://www.alsnswact.org.au/	The Aboriginal Legal Service opened their doors in 1970 in Redfern as the first Aboriginal Legal Service in Australia, and the first free legal assistance service in the country. After dispossession, new laws were imposed, and used to rule over First Nations communities. They had no say in the laws that were created and the police and the courts have historically played a fundamental role in the oppression of Aboriginal peoples. The ALS was founded as a response to this injustice, and in acknowledgement of the importance of Aboriginal people designing and delivering services to First Nations communities. Today the ALS does legal work in criminal law, children’s care and protection law and family law. They also support the development of wraparound programs and undertake broader policy and law reform work.	Eora, Darug & Ngunnawal Country (NSW & ACT)
