Thought Leadership Panel: Climate Justice Through Reuse and Repair In-Person / Online
Join researchers, council representatives, activists, and community organisers for a dynamic conversation on how everyday practices of reuse and repair such as clothing swaps, mending, and circular sharing, can be harnessed for climate justice. This panel will explore how local action can drive broader systems change, build post-election climate momentum, and revalue care-based practices as legitimate climate strategies. A low-emissions, plant-based lunch will be served in a relaxed networking setting. This will be followed by a keynote address by Nina Gbor, founder of Eco Styles.
Panel: 12:00 -1:00pm
Lunch: 1:00–1:45 PM
Keynote: 2:00–3:00 PM
Panellists:
Dr Jenna Condie – Western Sydney University / Blue Mountains Parents for Climate
Rob Morrison, Blue Mountains City Council representative – Local government climate & reuse strategy
Nic Seton, CEO Parents for Climate – Community-based climate action
(Chair/MC): A/Prof Stephen Healy, Western Sydney University
Keynote: Fashioning Justice: Local-Global Politics of Clothing, Waste, and Stewardship by Nina Gbor
Facilitated by: Alison Gill
Nina Gbor—founder of Eco Styles, sustainable fashion educator, campaigner, and clothes swap innovator—will explore how circularity in fashion and textiles can inspire broader systems change for environmental and social justice. Her work spans community education, policy influence, and creative activism, showing how share and reuse can be a foundation for community transformation and fashioning justice.
Come along to be inspired, challenged, and connected.
