Seminar: Social justice and adaptation to sea-level rise in Gippsland East
|
|
Professor Jon Barnett, Resource Management and Geography, University
of Melbourne. As knowledge and modelling of the risks of sea-level rise builds
momentum so too does the need to begin processes to adapt to avoid these risks.
This seminar will be an informal discussion of an ongoing ARC Linkage Project in
Gippsland East which aims
to understand the equity dimensions of climate change for small coastal
communities. Amongst the research locales are Lakes Entrance, Port Albert,
Seaspray, Manns Beach and McLoughlins Beach. We will present findings
about policy-makers’ views of the ‘problem’ in this area, and emerging insights
about the nature of social justice with respect to adaptation to sea-level rise.

in.cube8r gallery
|
|
in.cube8r gallery is a shop/gallery which runs like a long term market. It is open to anyone who makes things by hand and supports all things craft, art and hand-made in Melbourne. The gallery is divided up into glass cubicles, shelves, racks and partitions which artists can lease for a small weekly cost over a three month period. There is no commission on items sold. When Whitehat visited in June2008 we discovered a treasure trove of new upcoming artisans as well as designers like Julie Ughetti, with an international reputation. The work ranges from the quirky to sophisticated and given the diversity of art work on display you appear to be guaranteed to find eclectic original pieces. |
