Join the Connect MPID Sustainability Series for a practical discussion on Mandatory Climate Reporting and what organisations need to know as reporting requirements continue to evolve.
An optional half hour nature tour will be taken at the end of the meeting guided by John Macris from the Macquarie University Sustainability Team.

This year’s theme, #All In, calls on every Australian to actively participate in reconciliation—because real change happens when none of us stay on the sidelines.

When it comes to the question of how to solve a housing crisis, the default response can often be to “just build more houses”. But what does focusing only on volume and affordability actually cost our communities?

Join us for this dynamic discussion to unpack why creating liveable places goes beyond just bricks and mortar, with subject matter experts from across the Faculty of Arts to explore how supply-driven planning is playing out on the ground, and reflect on how decisions shape our cities’ communities and shared spaces by asking:

• Where do affordability, sustainability, community, and everyday liveability collide – and does a holistic solution exist?

• Why has building more houses become the main solution to the housing crisis?

• How can planning reflect the diversity of how people live and connect to place, as well as the unique housing barriers they face?
