How do we create more resilient communities in 2021?  Let’s have the conversation. 

If 2020 taught us anything, it was that we have big problems that need fixing. 

It was a year that laid bare some harsh realities in our shire. We faced floods and fire, inequities were revealed as the pandemic raged around us, and basic rights like housing became out of reach for many in our community. 

It was also a year that gave us hope. Our communities connected in ways they never had before. Solutions were created, borne out of necessity. Conversations about resilience, race and privilege became front page news.

We think 2021 offers a fresh start, so to get us inspired we're gathering community groups and local changemakers for an afternoon of concrete big ideas about how we can transform our neighbourhoods and local community. Will you join us?

We’ve asked five local big thinkers to each share one concrete idea that they believe will help create resilience and regeneration. Then you’ll get to share your own ideas and together we’ll figure out what we, as communities, organisations and changemakers, need to make the Byron Shire the blueprint for local and regional positive change. All of our ideas will then be showcased and further workshopped at Renew Fest in May 2021. 

Resilient Byron along with Renew Fest is supporting the growth of the resilience and regeneration movement in the Byron Shire and the Northern Rivers. We aim to support communities to identify what they need individually and collectively to prepare for disasters and upgrade our environmental, economic and social systems to ensure a thriving future. 

We’d love you to join the conversation.
