Why

In February this year, the U.N. Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, said “2023 is a year of reckoning. We need disruption to end the destruction.â€

This forum will discuss why we need a mass, diverse and disruptive climate movement and how we can build one that has the power and strategy to match the urgency of the climate crisis and achieve transformative change.

Speakers include:

  • Tishiko King - Masigalgal, Kulkalgal Nation, COP27 delegate
  • Jeff Sparrow, author, academic and Guardian columnist
  • Alexa Stuart, 19-year-old climate activist from Rising Tide Newcastle
  • + more TBC

Please RSVP here: 

This is the city leg of Rising Tide’s climate justice speaking tour promoting Rising Tide’s next national mobilisation: a 2-day, 3,000 strong, family-friendly flotilla blockade of Newcastle port (the largest coal port in the world) in November. Over sixteen days Rising Tide organisers Alexa Stuart, Naomi Hodgson and Shaun Murray will be hosting forums and training in the Northern Rivers, Brisbane, Adelaide, Melbourne, Canberra and Sydney.

We hope you can make it!
