Join us for a morning fireside chat-style discussion with Emma Bacon founder and executive director of Sweltering Cities, Dr. Elizabeth Farrelly author and founder of Better Cities Initiative and Emergency physician and climate leader Dr. Lai Heng Foong.

Sydney is predicted to experience weeks of extreme heat every summer for decades to come. How can we act together to make sure our city is safe for everyone, no matter where you live? What does a climate-resilient city look like?
