3:30 pm—4:15 pm AEDT Facebook live event

Across the world today we are simultaneously facing a health crisis, an economic crisis, an inequality crisis and a climate crisis. But the post-Covid19 recovery offers a chance to build a new, more sustainable and fairer vision of society. Business leaders are seizing this green-led initiative by investing in renewable energy and designing creative, innovative solutions to support a circular economy and promote sustainable living. Simply working towards being “less bad” will not get us where we need to be; we need transformational change and we have partnered with IKEA Australia to present a discussion series to celebrate the Year of Sustainability.

In a special live discussion, TEDxSydney’s Head of Curation, Fenella Kernebone and Jan Gardberg, CEO & CSO at IKEA Australia, sit down with Jess Scully, Deputy Lord Mayor of the City of Sydney – who uses creativity to build a sustainable and inclusive future and Dominic Price, Work Futurist at Atlassian, to talk about how businesses and communities are leading the sustainability movement in Australia and how to find innovative ways to create green economic growth.
