Leaders Forum delivers future focus
More than 70 leaders representing our councils and partners came together for this year’s SECCCA Leaders Forum – Future Proofed: Leadership in a Changing Climate. The program explored how councils can safeguard community wellbeing and prosperity through adaptation and resilience in infrastructure and the built environment.
Members and stakeholders came together to discuss the difficult challenges we face and learn more about the work already being undertaken. Distinguished keynote speaker Martijn Wilder AM, Founder, Pollination and Chair, National Reconstruction Fund provided a global perspective, reinforcing the importance of planning and setting the stage for an engaging panel discussion. We are grateful to the contribution of the panel who shared insights from their different perspectives and spoke candidly of the challenges we face but also of the opportunities this moment presents. The conversation included Jill Riseley AM, Deputy CEO, Infrastructure Victoria and Mark Stoermer CEO, Mornington Peninsula Shire who joined Martijn Wilder AM.
