FoEFNQ seeks to be actively involved, supporting other non-aligned campaigns and groups in FNQ. We work with our friends at small local CSG-Free groups in Cairns, Mossman, Kuranda, Port Douglas and Cooktown. FOEFNQ wants to keep NQ free of Coal Seam Gas mining and exploration activities. And we support the campaigns of Lock the Gate against gas in Queensland.
