Turbulent Times: Opportunities for action
10 May 2022 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
2022 Red Cross Oration
Are you worried about the future of our world?
There’s a lot to think about; the increase in mental health presentations, war in the Ukraine, recent floods, the implications of global warming and climate change… a global pandemic.
It’s a lot.
Many voices are engaging in emerging issues and speaking-up for the environment, gender equality and international justice. Yet, research suggests modern communities are experiencing fragmentation, social isolation, and a decline in volunteer participation. Why is this?
Join our panellists to discuss how we can build a connected, resilient community, activating and participating in the betterment of our collective future.
Speakers:
- Hannah Millar, Community Builder, Community Action & Mobilisation, Australian Red Cross
- Matt Etherington, 2019 Tasmanian Young Achiever of the Year
- Nataya Branjerdporn, Co-Founder, Disastrous Dinners
- Hosted by Dr Matt Killingsworth
