2022 is a significant milestone year for nature and climate. It marks the halfway point of the United Nations (UN) 2030 Agenda, the global community’s ambitious, shared roadmap for sustainable development. This means we have just seven years to achieve the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), of which Australia is a signatory. Yet we remain off-track on many important environmental indicators – from carbon to deforestation.This presentation addresses why doubling down on the local action and initiatives for which the Landcare movement is renowned – and finding new ways to collaborate to roll out proven solutions at speed and scale – is key to keeping our collective SDG ambitions alive in this ‘Decade of Action.’Presenter/s: Andrea Spencer-Cooke.
