KURANDA
Wednesday 16th August from 10:30 to 1:30, Kuranda Neighbourhood Centre.

This session is for emerging organisers and new volunteers who want to know more about what's ahead for them as we #stopadani, free the world from plastics, restrict developments, protect the Wet Tropics and make sure there is #nonewcoal. The Kuranda Session will also be useful for the STOP Kur-World campaign.

COST BY DONATION to cover visiting costs of facilitators: 

  • 'Sliding scale'. That means you choose. We ask you to pay a little something so that we know you will value the workshop, and attend on the day: as a wee deposit for commitment! 
  • NOBODY SHOULD NOT COME BECAUSE OF MONEY!
  • We suggest between $25 and $100 for each day.
  • In the professional sphere a workshop like this might be worth $400-$600 :)
  • But for you the price is subsidised by Friends of the Earth 
  • Please contribute what you can AND consider updating, renewing or taking MEMBERSHIP of one of the supporting local organisations, CAFNEC and Friends of the Earth FNQ. Memberships keep us afloat!

BRING FOOD TO SHARE FOR MEALTIMES :)

      Friends of the Earth FNQ acknowledges the first nations of the land on which it works and that sovereignty of land was never ceded. We pay our respects to Elders past and present, and acknowledge the pivotal role that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people continue to play within the Australian community.
