Asian Australians for Climate Solutions
Empowering communities to lead in addressing the challenges of climate change through cultural perspective and meaningful action.
A grassroots organisation dedicated to meaningful change.
Recognising the unique cultural perspectives and challenges faced by Asian Australians, we work to raise awareness, promote sustainable practices, and encourage greater involvement in climate initiatives. Through culturally relevant engagement and leadership development, the organisation amplifies the voices of Asian Australians within the broader climate movement.
AAFCS focuses on building climate literacy and addressing misinformation, while also creating spaces for meaningful dialogue and action. We engage with local communities through workshops, events, advocacy campaigns and programs; working with councils, schools, and other organisations to foster a climate-conscious mindset. By bringing together diverse voices, AAFCS aims to ensure that Asian Australian communities are represented and involved in shaping a sustainable future for all.

Our Deep Belief
Asian Australians for Climate Solutions (AAFCS) began with a simple but profound belief: our diverse communities have a unique and powerful role to play in the fight against climate change.
Founded by individuals who have seen first-hand the impacts of climate change on their ancestral homelands in Asia and here in Australia, we are a movement born out of deep care and responsibility for the planet and future generations.
For many of us at AAFCS, the journey started with stories from our parents and grandparents. They are the stories of migration, sacrifice, and the search for a better life. These stories taught us the importance of not wasting resources, of valuing every drop of water and of appreciating every breath of clean air.
As first-generation Australians and recent migrants, we’ve inherited a deep respect for the environment and a commitment to preserving it for those who come after us.
Today, living in a country like Australia, we recognise the privilege we have: access to resources, education, and a deeper understanding of climate issues.
We also understand the urgency.
Our communities, both here and back home, are facing unprecedented environmental challenges, and we cannot stand by and do nothing. This is why AAFCS exists: to harness the power of diverse Asian Australian communities to make climate solutions part of everyday life, and build the momentum for stronger climate action.
