Kiwi in Climate Book Launch

Join us for the exciting launch of 'Kiwis in Climate - Voices for Climate Solutions'. This book is timely, reminding us of our capacity for hope, action and change, and the critical importance of the conversation about climate in an election year. 

The launch will be MC'd by Todd Muller (Priority One chair) with a keynote address from Fiona McTavish (CEO BOPRC), and a panel discussion with Tessa Vincent (editor) and Carolyn Mortland (Zespri, author), followed by networking and conversation over kai. 

Come along to be part of the climate conversation and pick up a copy of this groundbreaking book.

This event is brought to you by Tīwaiwaka, Priority One, Manaaki Kaimai Mamaku Trust, Envirohub and Bay Conservation Alliance, and kindly sponsored by Zespri. Proceeds of ticket sales will be donated to the Western Bay Emergency Response Fund.
