In this episode of WoodChat’s Women in Forestry series, we speak with Tolita Davis-Angeles, a Cobble-Cobble woman from the western Bunya Mountains in Queensland who grew up on Butchulla Country.
As Chair of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Indigenous Working Group, Tolita shares her perspective on Indigenous leadership in forestry, the importance of caring for Country, and the opportunities for stronger partnerships between Traditional Owners and the forest and wood products sector. The conversation explores cultural knowledge, sustainable forest management, and the role Indigenous voices play in shaping the future of Australia’s forests.
Tune in for an insightful discussion on leadership, stewardship and the future of forestry.
