A tour of a rather different kind is happening on the Northern Rivers this week, with the two lead plaintiffs in a climate change duty of care court case against the Commonwealth visiting from the Torres Strait Islands to meet with disaster survivors.

We heard about the case and the tour from Grata Fund founder Isabelle Reinecke, Uncle Paul Kabai and Uncle Pabai Pabai last week and today we hear from Saibai elder, Brisbane-based Dr Aunty McRose Elu, who is accompanying the tour party.
