Is an alliance of over 65 regional, state and national environmental, health, community development, and research groups from throughout Australia (See our member area for a full list.) CANA was formed in 1998 to be the Australian branch of the global CAN network, with representative groups in over 70 nations.
Our Mission
The Climate Action Network Australia (CANA) is the peak non-government body on climate change in Australia. Given the scientific projections of climate change impacts, CANA brings together the efforts of non-government organisations in Australia to build civil society's response and achieve an effective climate policy at both a national and international level. CANA achieves this through facilitated dialogue, collaborative projects, training and capacity-building, an annual conference and ongoing information updates among our member organisations. As the Australian arm of Climate Action Network International, CANA coordinates and facilitates the Australian NGO delegation at international climate negotiations. CANA has over 65 NGO member organisations. Read more about CANA's climate concerns here.
Our Policies
Along with member groups, CANA has worked out a number of policy positions that we believe are the best ways to tackle the challenges we face with climate change. View CANA Policy & Briefings.
Working Together
We have more ability to generate change on this issue if we work together and share information and strategies - there is much to be done over the next decade if we are to avoid the threats from climate change.
