SUMMARY:An Inclusive Future: Designing Sustainable Cities and Communities
DESCRIPTION:*NB: This event will comply with Queensland Government guidelines. Should restrictions impact our ability to host this event in person\, refunds will be made available*\n\nToday\, 4 billion people – more than half of humanity – live in cities\, and this is expected to rise to 5 billion people by 2030. \nEven before the COVID-19 pandemic\, cities were dealing with challenges associated with deteriorating air quality\, unplanned urban sprawl\, and the impact of infrastructure and services that do not meet the needs of growing populations. \nJoin us as for an in-depth discussion around Sustainable Development Goal 11: Make cities and human settlements inclusive\, safe\, resilient and sustainable\, and how we can address inequalities. We’ll focus on the multi-faceted process it will take to ensure the future of our urban environments is designed with sustainable development in mind. \nDesigning inclusive\, sustainable cities and communities requires technical and cultural expertise and input from all fields. From engineering and architecture\, to data and social sciences\, achieving this goal will require significant engagement at government and grassroots levels. \nJoin in the conversation with our incredible solutions-focused panel\, as we discuss what we want to see in our cities\, understand the complexity of urban design and explore how we can work together to achieve better outcomes for all. \nMEET OUR PANEL: \n🔹 Associate Professor Elske van de Fliert –  School of Communication and Arts\, Director of the Centre for Communication and Social Change\, UQ. Elske’s research focuses on the theory and practice of participatory communication in sustainable development and social change\, and frameworks for and facilitation of transdisciplinary research for development\, with application across fields  including agriculture\, rural and community development\, and energy poverty. \n🔹 Norman McGillivray – Founder\, Beddown\nOriginally from the UK\, Norm’s background has seen him work in the Automotive Industry for Jaguar and LandRover. In Australia\, Norm has worked in Industry\, Government and the Not-for-Profit sectors. Now Norm is challenging conventional thinking to address the massive social issue of homelessness here in Australia as he looks to implement his vision for the charity Beddown he has founded of ‘We believe everyone deserves a bed to sleep in.’ \n🔹 Dr Kathi Holt – Executive Director\, NERØHOLT\nAn architect and urban designer with more than 30 years of international industry and academic experience\, and an executive Masters in Cities from the London School of Economics\, Kathi is a passionate believer that social determinants and inequalities are closely linked to the conditions in which we live and work. NERØHOLT is a design research and consulting practice that works with universities\, government agencies\, not-for-profit organisations and commercial practices\, to collectively tackle complex projects\, and is focused on the public spaces of our cities as the key to designing a better\, more equitable\, healthy and sustainable future. \n🔹 Toby Turner – Urban Utilities\nToby is a civil engineer with 15 years’ experience in urban infrastructure planning. He is also a political science major who has worked in the aid and development sector for NGOs in East Africa and the Pacific\, including as a UNICEF Consultant. \nKEY EVENT INFO: \n– Venue: The Precinct start-up space in Fortitude Valley\n– Light refreshments provided\n– Dress code is business casual\n– Registration essential ($15 Members/Students\, $25 General Admission\, or $40 Bring a Friend) \nDoors open at 6pm! \nPlease do not attend if you have COVID-19 symptoms.

SUMMARY:Finding Refuge: The refugee crisis\, the role of the UN and what more we can do.
DESCRIPTION:Registration Essential: Click here to register \nCurrently\, one per cent of the world’s population – or 1 in 95 people – is now forcibly displaced. This compares with 1 in 159 in 2010.

SUMMARY:UN & Australia Sustainable Partnerships Forum
DESCRIPTION:The incredible global impact of the Coronavirus pandemic has made people in Australia and around the world aware of the urgent need for action to ensure people’s basic needs are met; that the planet is made secure from the effects of climate change and that our future world is healthier\, safer\, fairer and more prosperous. \nThe Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide the global blueprint to end poverty\, protect our planet and ensure prosperity. Working together to implement them by 2030 will mean we address the underlying factors which exacerbated the worldwide crisis: poverty; food insecurity; fragmented health systems\, educational inequality and climate change. \nOn 20 and 21 April 2021\, we will bring together governments of all levels\, businesses\, universities\, start-ups\, students and community organisations to hear from\, and interact with\, leading speakers from within the UN and from companies\, universities and organisations which partner with the UN. \nOver two days\, Forum delegates will have access to compelling and inspiring expert information. While virtual\, people will be able to connect\, network and lay the groundwork for the range of partnerships needed to achieve the SDGs. This gathering will encompass all 17 Goals but be guided by SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals to ensure it is outcome oriented. \nAfter a worldwide consultation\, the UN has identified four key areas which require urgent and sustainable solutions. If you haven’t already done so\, we urge you to watch Nations United: a beautiful and inspiring visual representation of these challenges. \nOur Forum will use these as overarching themes for our range of Keynote and Panel Sessions and Interactive Workshops. They are: \n\nClimate and Planet\nPoverty and Inequality\nJustice and Human Rights\nGender Equality

DESCRIPTION:Join us at 7pm on the 2nd of December for our panel discussion event with the Not-For-Profit sector\, as we discuss the impacts of COVID-19! \nIt goes without saying that COVID-19 has impacted everyone worldwide. The Not-For-Profit sector particularly\, has had to adapt to these unprecedented changes. This panel discussion\, hosted by UNAAV YP and 180 Degrees Consulting hopes to engage with organisations within the NFP sector to ask them exactly how they’ve been impacted and how they’ve had to create and reform their strategies and every day work. The NFP is a vital sector in society\, as many organisations seek to reduce inequalities and ensure that individuals and communities’ needs are met. We hope to strengthen and support the NFP community as they transition towards a post COVID-19 world. \n  \nEvent speakers: \nChristine Diamond – Melbourne City Mission \n\nChristine has been in the not-for-profit sector for over 14 years and has worked in fundraising. Christine is determined to build strong\, emotionally intelligent\, intuitively responsive fundraising leaders to support the sector far into the future. Christine works for Melbourne City Mission\, who empowers and supports “people to develop their own path away from disadvantage\, towards living their best life.” MCM has helped young people experiencing homelessness. \nScott Watters – Life Changer \n\n“LifeChanger Foundation maximises the potential of all young Australians by providing the resources\, skills\, education and pathway they need to develop a positive self-identity.” \n  \nAmanda Carlile – Fitted for Work \n\nAmanda has two decades of hands-on experience leading teams of volunteers and paid staff in organisations that support humanitarian disaster relief\, people living with mental illness\, women trafficked into the sex industry and women facing disadvantage. Amanda is passionate and dedicated to encourage women in the workplace to thrive through developing and utilising skills that are intrinsically theirs. Amanda works for Fitted for Work\, a not-for-profit that helps Australian women experiencing disadvantage get work\, keep work and strive at work. Fitted for Work believes in a future that is equal\, positive and powerful for women in the workplace. Their goal is to provide women with practical skills\, knowledge\, self-esteem and know-how so that they can move forward with confidence in the workplace.
