Despite growing interest in Indigenous fire stewardship practices and knowledge, there is a substantial gap in the literature relating to empirical research documenting First Nations peoples’ voices/experiences/effects of bushfire. This scoping review aimed to explore the available literature on the effects of bushfires among the Australian First Nations peoples and emphasised the ways First Nations peoples experienced bushfires. Specifically, the review aimed to answer the following questions: How have bushfires impacted the lives of the First Nations peoples of Australia? How have First Nations peoples’ responses to bushfires been documented? A systematic search of five electronic databases and grey literature was initiated. A total of sixteen English-language publications related to the multifaceted impacts of bushfires on Australian First Nations peoples were included. Descriptive thematic analysis identified three major themes: (1) disproportionate effects; (2) health and overall wellbeing effects and access to primary health care; (3) First Nations peoples’ response. We found that Australian First Nations peoples’ experience of bushfires was described in the literature as unique and different compared to others because of a qualitatively different relationship with the Country. This review also identified that First Nations peoples’ knowledge, historical legacies, cultural values, and practices were greatly misunderstood and, in many cases, ignored by the relevant agencies while taking and executing bushfire management strategies.
