UWA currently places profits before the good of the planet and its people

Choosing profits over principles leads to obvious conflicts of interest
UWA apparently esteems both ties to fossil fuel industry and “sustainability” and Indigenous culture
This is most clear in EZone and the Oceans Institute, BHP and Woodside Energy invested millions in EZone.
At EZone, ‘respect’ for Indigenous culture by incorporating local languages in the building sits beside major pollutors and EZone corporate sponsors, Woodside and BHP
“The true measure of our work will be whether, through education and research, we are able to lead on issues of sustainability, living standards and resource management. The Engineering Zone and the multidisciplinary teams we bring together there, will make sure we do”
        This is an attempt at greenwashing. How can you ‘lead on issues of sustainability’ while continuing to support oil and gas extraction in projects like the Chevron Gorgon LNG Project, Australia’s biggest polluter, on Barrow Island, a nature reserve?

The UWA Business School has partnerships with Woodside, BHP, and Chevron
For the purpose of having “quality networks to draw on when you graduate”

Rio Tinto is one of Archeology School’s 12 research partners
The Centre for Rock Art Research & Management is funded by Rio Tinto, an attempt to greenwash Rio Tinto’s history of blowing up Indigenous sites like Juukan Gorge

Woodside Energy, BHP, Chevron, Rio Tinto and South32 are some of the biggest climate polluters in the world, and UWA has ties to all of them. UWA’s pride in these “industry connections” is a disgrace. UWA continues to support these companies through research, greenwashing, and investment. For the future of our planet and its people, UWA must divest and take positive climate action!

The referendum results show that YES the student body collectively want UWA to divest from these fossil fuel companies. But a profit-orientated management will never consider divestment without student and staff fightback. Join student activists confronting management at the Protest on October 12 at 1pm on Oak Lawn!

Which climate criminals run UWA? Oil and gas industry professionals sit comfortably on our Business school boards. But we believe fossil fuel companies have no place on campus, influencing UWA towards climate inaction. Protest for divestment this Wednesday at 1pm Oak Lawn

The protest on the 12th October is the next step to take after voting YES in the Referendum.Climate Action Network/Socialist Alternative UWA /Fossil Free UWA organised climate action challenges UWA management’s ties with the fossil fuel industry to fight for a fossil fuel free, sustainable UWA.

The referendum results have clarified beyond a doubt what the UWA student body wants done about UWA’s connections to fossil fuels, divestment! This is a crucial first step in UWA student’s and activist’s fight against the fossil fuel pollution of our planet and profit driven universities that allow it. Bring the fight to management on October 12 at 1pm on Oak Lawn.

ON TODAY! Rally for climate justice! Reason number 3 to come along is that protesting can win. Waiting for the system to fix itself has gotten us absolutely nowhere, if we're going to win any gains, we need to be disruptive.
Mass movements have shaken the system and won us gains in the past, but they all start from something smaller. Come along today 1pm Forrest Chase to help us build a climate protest movement!
