"Climate change mitigation and adaptation"
Dr Judy Lawrence, Senior Research Fellow, Climate Change Research Institute, Victoria University of Wellington, will draw on her ground-breaking international research on climate change adaptation linking theory to practice.

Yaza opens for dining/drinks 6.00pm - conversation 7.30-9.30pm.
