    🌷This event will primarily focus on inviting people to have a kōrero about the future of our city and how we can ensure it is not only liveable, but just and uplifts those that have been and will continue to be affected by the impacts of climate change. We will write submissions together to show the council that climate justice must be at the forefront of the document that will guide its activities for (at least) the next 10 years.
