Surviving and Resilience

Posted by admin in Australian External Opportunities, FYI, What's On

Forwarded from Griffith Review [one of the more respectable arms of Griffiths ;P]

In an ever more populous, urbanised and media-saturated world, it can feel as if the rate and scale of disasters is straight out of a doomsday movie. It’s easy to lapse into compassion fatigue and short-term ‘fixes.’ Yet behind the headlines there are complex stories of renewal and new thinking on how to rebuild our lives and communities.

Join contributors to Griffith REVIEW 35: Surviving, including author and journalist Matthew Condon, Green Cross CEO Mara Bun, and disaster management expert Sidney Dekker for a discussion on Brisbane’s floods, sustainable recovery and the inspiration of the stories, myths and beliefs that sustain hope in the wake of crisis, moderated by Kate Evans.

Wed 28 March, 6pm
slq Auditorium 1, level 2, State Library of Queensland, South Bank
Free event, bookings required – Eventbrite or 3840 7896
