ANNA ROSE, CEO, ENVIRONMENTAL LEADERSHIP AUSTRALIA

Anna is a respected leader in the environment movement who has worked for more than two decades to help Australia make progress on climate change and conservation.

In 2019 she founded Environmental Leadership Australia, in partnership with The Myer Foundation, to reach outside the traditional environment movement and support leadership that would lay the groundwork for bipartisan progress towards climate solutions.

Anna’s background is in community engagement, including leading Earth Hour, and working with councils, schools and small business. Anna is a Director of Farmers for Climate Action, a Governor of WWF-Australia, a former lecturer at the Australian National University and a former associate at Melbourne University Sustainable Society Institute. She is a Churchill Fellow, a former Myer Foundation Innovation Fellow, was named one of the Australian Financial Review/Westpac’s 100 Women of Influence and is a member of Chief Executive Women.

'Leadership for Climate and Nature: A New Approach'

In the face of accelerating climate change and nature loss, our communication and leadership styles must evolve. Join Anna Rose as she shares her unique insights from over two decades as a leader in conservation on how we can move beyond past divisions to create a more bipartisan approach. Anna will share a fresh perspective on finding common ground and share examples of unusual alliances leading to lasting impact.
