Adaptation Symposium 2009

On the 3 and 4 June, the Victorian Government brought together over 80 of some of the best international and Australian minds working in climate change adaptation for a two day symposium in Melbourne.

Working with climate change: an adaptation symposium was a world-first, in which government brought together leaders and decision makes from government, business, academia and the community to jointly address the challenges and explore the opportunities of climate change.
