Join Circular Economy Living Lab, AdaptNSW and Regen Labs for an interactive workshop exploring what makes the Hunter Region resilient, connected and future-ready.

This workshop is open to professionals, businesses, researchers, local government, community leaders wanting to help shape the future of the Hunter Region.

The Hunter is entering a period of significant change. Building a resilient future will require more than individual projects or organisations working alone.

It will require connected people, shared direction, strong local leadership and practical action.

Join us for an interactive workshop to explore what makes the Hunter Region resilient today and what the focus and ingredients are needed to continue and build on the thriving, connected and future-ready region over the next 10 years.

Together we will:

• Identify the values of individuals and businesses in the Hunter Region, building on our current strengths, value chain and assets that already exist across the region
• Explore current business activity, opportunities, circular economy initiatives and current trends of the Hunter
• Development of a vision for what a resilient Hunter Region could look like in 10 years in the future.
• Identify existing efforts, needed critical skills, networks, infrastructure and support needed to achieve that vision
• Connect with others who share similar interests, goals and vision for their own business and the Hunter
• Form action oriented micro-communities that will continue collaborating beyond the workshop, supported by Circular Economy Living Lab and other collaborative partners with micro-community check ins.

Like a recipe, participants will contribute their unique perspectives, experiences and expertise to help identify the ingredients needed for a resilient future.

Expect engaging conversations, creative thinking, practical collaboration and the opportunity to connect with people who want to move from discussion to action.

Tea, coffee and light refreshments provided.

Leave with knowing more about the values and capability of the Hunter Region, co-design a collective vision for the Hunter and belong to a Hunter Region micro community where the action continues after the event concludes!

Themes that could arise from the workshop and be translated into micro communities on the day could include:

Resilient localised food and agriculture value chain
Resilient localised water management
Resilient localised energy and fuel
Resilient localised resource, asset and waste management
Resilient labour force
Resilient localised economy
Resilient biodiversity
Resilient education
Resilient housing and infrastructure

Unlike many workshops that end when participants leave the room, this event is designed to identify aligned people and support the formation of ongoing micro-communities that can continue creating positive change and action across the Hunter Region.

This workshop is hosted by the Circular Economy Living Lab and supported by AdaptNSW and Regen Labs.
