Climate justice in the midst of climate turbulence

Sydney Environment Institute presents leading voices as they discuss Australia’s urgent climate, housing and energy challenges, exploring solutions through inclusive decision-making, First Nations leadership, and innovative design to drive sustainable, equitable change for all.

Last year, the world overshot 1.5-degrees of warming, and with less than five years to meet key climate, housing, and equity targets, Australia faces a critical challenge: how to accelerate transformation while ensuring justice and equity. This panel will explore the intersecting challenges of the energy transition, worsening climate impacts, and everyday adaptation to climate-change.

Experts will discuss how approaches like deliberative democracy, innovative urban design and First Nations leadership are essential to tackling these compounding issues. But trust-building and inclusive decision-making take time, so how do we balance urgency with the need to create just and lasting solutions?

Join us for this one-hour panel discussion followed by a half an hour of networking.

This event is part of SEI’s Climate Justice Series. This panel series brings together leading thinkers and practitioners to explore the urgent intersections of climate action, equity, and systemic change.
