What will #ClimateDisruption mean for us in #Kurilpa and how can we respond?

These questions were the focus of an all-day forum Shifting Climate, Shifting Places held at #GlobalChangeInstitute, at the @uniofqld on 20 Nov. Attendees were from a broad range of backgrounds including #urbanplanning, #landscapedesign, $climatescience and community organisations. The forum forms part of a bigger collaborative process for neighbourhood action on adaptation, building resilience in the face of climate disruption.

Print makers throughout Australia are using their art to raise awareness of our most endangered bird group, #migratoryshorebirds. Art they say, has a way of sneaking up on the viewer.
