Thought Leadership Panel: Climate Justice Through Reuse and Repair

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.

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
  • Student activist – WSU Clothes swap organiser (tbc)
  • (Chair/MC): A/Prof Stephen Healy, Western Sydney University

Guiding questions:

  1. What is your current project and how does it connect reuse/repair with climate justice?
  2. How can researchers, councils, and communities collaborate to extend impact?
  3. What does an effective post-election climate politics look like from the ground up?
  4. How can reuse and repair practices be recognised as legitimate and measurable forms of climate action?

Come along to be inspired, challenged, and connected.
