We are thrilled to introduce you to the new Thinker in Residence program, focusing on creative civic engagement and regeneration economics in Waverley. This initiative brings together innovative heads, hearts and hands so that together, we can strengthen wellbeing in our neighbourhood - Regen Waverley 🌱

We will explore cutting-edge approaches to urban renewal that balance ecological sustainability with social equity. Our program draws from the Doughnut Economics model, which provides a framework for meeting society's needs without overshooting our planet's ecological ceiling.

Come along to learn more and meet other folk - wherever you might be on your journey to regeneration 🌟

What to expect:

Outline of the 12 month 'Thinker in Residence' program

When: 11th August, from 2 to 5 pm
