WA Strategy Forum: Water, Climate Change & Planning for Growth
How resilient is your community and are you managing the risks?
On Monday 11th August 2008, the Resilient Futures Network (Western Australia), in association with the City of South Perth, New Commons (USA) and KT Studios will host a strategy forum designed to assist local government, organizations, businesses and communities to:
1. Gain an understanding of the conditions that are currently influencing water, water related policy and community action in Western Australia.
2. Focus on the relationship between key water related issues (diminishing supply and sea-level rise) and current and future implications for planning and growth.
3. Deeply explore the risks associated with the failure to act both in relation to governance and community impact.
4. Begin to develop a resilience-based strategic response and key action initiatives, as individual organizations, and potentially, as a network for action.
Join your peers in addressing these key issues and more by participating in a unique strategy forum for senior decision-makers to be held by the Resilient Futures Network at the City of South Perth on Monday 11th of August 2008.

Cheers from Little Rhody!
