SUMMARY:Webinar: Cultural Licence to Operate in the Blue Economy
DESCRIPTION:Flipping the script for Industry to consider the competitive advantage of working directly alongside First Nations through changing the formula of corporate responsibility in a more legitimised and objective way. \nUnlocking the Blue Economy through an inclusive and equitable approach does not happen by chance.  As governments\, investors\, rightsholders and stakeholders look to the sea as the next economic frontier\, there is a renewed focus on ensuring a balanced approach to developing and managing ocean resources through cross-disciplinary engagement. \nThe presentation and video will explore outcomes from a trans-Tasman scoping project funded to build a Cultural Licence to Operate framework that helps to create the ecosystem for an ethical\, equitable\, dynamic\, and responsive system in which negotiations are customised at place. This Indigenous-led study set out to strengthen the guiding tracks and transparency for shifting out from a transactional way to engage with First Nations through “keeping up an appearance” to building and maintaining a relational way of maximising co-benefits.

SUMMARY:People power for a Just Transition
DESCRIPTION:How can we prevent exploitation in the energy transition? What will work look like in a Net Zero future? What role do labour rights and trade unions play in a Just Transition? For our fifth event in the Perspectives on the Transition series\, we are delighted to host our Advisory Board Chair\, Sharan Burrow AC! Sharan has previously led the International Trade Union Confederation (the largest trade union in the world) and is a global advocate for just transition. \nThe transformation required for the energy transition will encompass all facets of society\, including how\, why and where we work. However\, the energy transition also holds the potential to marginalise already disadvantaged groups and further entrench global inequality. In this seminar\, Sharan will discuss the importance of sustainable business development and the roles of human rights\, employment and justice when it comes to delivering a Net Zero future. \nFollowing the seminar\, drinks and light refreshments will be provided for those attending in person. \n(Please note: details of livestream will be provided closer to the event) \nThe presenter: \nSharan Burrow is a global advocate for human rights\, climate action and Just Transition.
