In the first of this series, run by the Fenner School of Environment & Society with the College of Medicine, Biology and Environment, we will take a look at the big picture of natural resource maangement, answering these questions and many more.

The forum will feature: 
 
  • Peter Kanowski, forestry
  • John Williams, sustainable land management
  • Jim Pratley, agriculture
  • Phoebe Howe, ANU alumna and Canberra Loves 40%
The forum will run from 5 - 6pm followed by light refreshments and informal discussion.
