Why

The Federal Election is coming up. Which Wills candidates will act on what matter most to you? This is your chance to question your candidates. Every candidate for the seat of Wills is being invited.

Seats are limited so book your seats by RSVPing NOW and submit your questions for the candidates. See Ticket link. (Event is free.)

Candidate forums are a unique can’t-miss experience and one of the best ways to inform your vote. They’re also one of the most powerful opportunities to show politicians just how much the community cares about particular issues.

Before this election, let’s show our candidates that we demand urgent action to create a safe future by protecting the Australian environment that we all love, slashing power bills through more renewables, and standing up to the climate polluters, saying no to new coal and gas.

This forum will be chaired by the CEO of the ACF (Australian Conservation Foundation), Kelly O'Shanassy, and we will also hear from two guest speakers to help frame some of the big issues: Sarah Hussein from Merri Food Hub, and Dr Ben Dunne from Doctors for the Environment.

6:00pm - Come along early to enjoy a deforestation-free democracy sausage sizzle (Halal and vegan options available). Entertainment will be provided by The Climate Choir.

6:30pm forum start time.

Family friendly event. Accessible Venue

Organised by Climate Action Merri-bek (CAM), Neighbours United for Climate Action (NUCA), ACF Community Melbourne NxNW and Doctors for the Environment Australia (DEA)
