Sustainability in Action: A Gold Coast Forum for Organisations

A free, fun and practical half-day forum for organisations at any stage of their sustainability journey — from those just getting started to those already taking action.

Hear from experts and local organisations at different stages of their sustainability journey, sharing experiences, lessons learned and practical ideas.

About Citizen COP Australia

Citizen COP Australia is a decentralised, people-powered movement running alongside the global COPs in 2026. Enabled by People For Nature, but intentionally independent and distributed, Citizen COP invites communities, organisations, schools, businesses, artists, and local groups across Australia to host their own events during the COP period. Rather than a single central event, Citizen COP is a nationwide network of conversations, workshops, and actions that bring global climate and nature discussions into local communities. It connects people to science, solutions, and each other, strengthening civic engagement and ensuring citizen voices contribute to Australia’s climate and nature conversations.
