SUMMIT 2020

In February 2020 the National Climate Emergency Summit drew together practitioners, advocates, industry innovators, youth leaders, and government representatives from across Australia to explore and unpack what a climate emergency transition could look like at local, national, and global levels.

The diverse program set out to tackle critical issues spanning the political, economic, technical, and social change dimensions of initiating and undertaking a full-scale response to the climate emergency.

The Summit focussed on the pressing need to consolidate coordinated and cooperative approaches to form sound and effective responses – inviting communities, practitioners, and businesses to both challenge and assist governments to respond to the emergency we face.
