Description

We’re on the move – are you?

Speaking tour on the climate change precipitated relocation of atoll peoples in Papua New Guinea, and the implications for climate justice in an Australian context

The visiting speakers will be Ursula Rakova, director of Tulele Peisa, the Tulun (Carteret Islands) relocation program in Bougainville, PNG, and Pais Taehu, a representative of the Nukumanu (Tasman Islands) community of far eastern PNG.

Hosted by Caritas Australia and Friends of the Earth.

Join us for an enlightening discussion of the realities faced by people displaced by climate change and a call for strong action in Australia.

The tour, scheduled from 9 – 22 April, will include speaking events in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, networking, engagement with politicians and media activities. This registration is for the Sydney event only. For information about other events, contact Wendy Flannery wendy.flannery@foe.org.au 0439 771 692
