Pathways to a Better Future – Sustainability Panel Discussion
Thu 2 November at 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm
FREE
As part of Sustainable Living Week and in conjunction with Future Now, a travelling exhibition currently on loan from the Australian Museum, Central West Libraries invites you to an evening of discussion. Featuring special guests Dr Jenny Newell as well as local sustainability experts, we will ask questions such as;
- What does a better future mean to different people?
- How can we frame future planning with an eye to nature, community, culture, and technology?
- What are the pathways to get there?
Dr Jenny Newell is the Curator, Climate Change, at the Climate Solutions Centre, Australian Museum, Sydney. She works to advance understanding and engagement in the climate crisis, through exhibitions (such as Future Now, currently at the Orange Library) as well as events, publications and community collaborations. With a background in environmental history and a focus on the Pacific and Australia, she has used her curatorial roles in London, Canberra, New York and Sydney to explore and advance positive human-nature relationships.
