Event description

Gondwana Link is landscape scale project which is restoring biodiversity and carbon to a huge corridor between Margaret River through to the Great Western Woodlands around Kalgoorlie. In recognition of Gondwana Link’s global significance, it has been named as one of the ‘Founding 50’ projects for the United Nations Decade of Ecosystem Restoration (2021- 2030). Transition Town Vincent (TTV) and its project partners is just setting out on its own landscape restoration project called the Black Cockatoo Forest which seeks to restore biodiversity and carbon to the inner city of Perth and we thought who better to talk to than the CEO and founder of Gondwana Link, Keith Bradby OAM.

So on Monday 13th October join us as we start our conversation with Keith to learn what we need to do to scale up the Black Cockatoo Forest. This will commence with an onsite tour and discussion with Keith at our Black Cockatoo pocket forest site at 5pm. Then at 6.30pm at the adjacent Floreat Athena clubrooms we will view a documentary about Gondwana Link called Breathing Life into Boodja. This will then be followed with a panel discussion featuring Keith, and a number of our project collaborators: Dr Grey Coupland (Murdoch University/Pocket Forests WA), Catriona Ferrie (Rotary), Steve McCabe (Rewild Perth) and Cr Alex Castle (Deputy Mayor, City of Vincent).
