Inspired by the Wild Law conferences in the UK, the seeds of Earth Jurisprudence have cross- pollinated and taken root in Australia. Dr Peter Burdon (Adelaide University) initiated and organised the first Australian Earth Jurisprudence Conference in September 2009, with support of Dr. Alessandro Pelizzon (Earth Laws), Friends of the Earth Australia and UK Environmental Law Association. This has become an annual forum to discuss Earth Jurisprudence and related issues including Rights of Nature, Aboriginal customary laws, and relationship with land and territory.
