Kooyong Community Forum: Meet Your Candidates
Wednesday, March 12, 7pm to 9pm
Hawthorn Arts Centre, 360 Burwood Rd, Hawthorn
Which Kooyong candidates will help us save money on energy bills by supporting rooftop solar and household electrification and work to secure a clean, sustainable future? Which candidate has the best policies to ensure that Australia benefits as the world decarbonises? The energy transition offers significant opportunities to secure good quality jobs, clean manufacturing and green exports. Who has the policies to best grasp these opportunities and ensure a safer climate future for our kids?
Join us at the Hawthorn Arts Centre on Wednesday 12th March, at 7pm for a 7.30 start. Listen to the candidates, ask them questions and inform your vote.
Too often our candidates are no more than names on a ballot paper. This forum offers the opportunity for you to get a sense of the strengths and weaknesses of the candidates and their climate policies. There is nothing quite like seeing them on stage answering the hard questions.
The forum will be moderated by Victoria McKenzie-McHarg, seasoned climate campaigner and Strategic Director at Women’s Environmental Leadership Australia.
If the election is called for May we will be shifting the date to Wednesday April 2nd. Please save both dates, and we will let you know by email.

This event is supported by the Australian Conservation Foundation Boroondara Community Group.
