Background

Big weather events are happening more often, prompting us to seek new ideas, solutions & approaches for the future. Join us to discuss extreme weather in the Mildura region, its direct impacts & local solutions for our communities.

Hosted by Make a Change in partnership with many local organisations, this initiative is designed for us to ‘talk about BIG weather’. How have we been impacted? What have we learned? What local solutions can we activate moving forward?

We believe that by sharing insights & ideas, we can collectively explore possible solutions: aiming to improve circumstances & lessen the impact of extreme weather events on the people we care about, the organisations we are part of & the towns we live in.
