Hi everyone! Intersect's got the copyright for screening this awesome new documentary on education We're screening it in Wellington for Intersect members - get in touch with me if you'd like to host a similar event in Dunedin! Nice way to intersect. Eli

Hey all,

Feels like there's been heaps happening on the climate change front in Dunedin lately. If you're keen for one more event to get your teeth into, then we're hosting a public debate this Wednesday 25 May, 7pm in St David Lecture Theatre.

 

The debate is called "Drill Baby Drill - should NZ go green or go underground?" Metiria Turei and David Clark will both be speaking on Team Green, and a representative from Straterra (mining industry lobby group) will be representing Team Underground.

 

"We" is the Otago University Debating Society. We'll be popping a few student speakers in there to keep the celebs on their toes. There'll also be a panel discussion at the end for you to put questions to the speakers.

 

Would be awesome to see people along - it's hard to break into the non-student network with an event like this, so bring any people you know would be keen! Facebook event is here.

Hey guys, 

I've had a request to share this event on here - looks like it'll be a fascinating discussion. Check it out!

Hi lovely Dunedin Intersectors - this event is in your playing grounds so no excuses not to attend!

 

Winter Lights 2011 will consider New Zealand’s longer-term energy future with an emphasis on the role of fossil fuels in transitioning the country to a more sustainable, low carbon economy. This is the first in a series of Thought Leadership Forums being planned and run by the National Energy Research Institute (NERI).

 

WHERE: The Otago Museum, 419 Great King Street, Dunedin.

WHEN: Thursday 16th June 2011, 8:30am - 7:00pm.

 

We will hear from New Zealanders leading the broader energy sector and discuss both the opportunities and the trade-offs involved in moving to an energy future with less dependence on traditional fuels.

 

Early Bird Registrations close next Friday the 20th of May. Note also that some of you may be eligible for the heavily discounted NGO/Student price.

Totally stoked on the pecha kucha idea. Maybe that would be good to have once we've already had an initial get-together/potluck/space-warming? We should do that real soon, I reckon!

Yay to face-to-face catch up. Pecha kucha whats emerging in Dunnas in terms of sustainability ... great idea Guy ! How about a spring date to give time for more people to crawl out of the woodwork and fossick in the photos ...

Hi Steve, We're just in the process of confirming whether one of our speakers can make the proposed date for the film screening. It's looking to be August 11 but I will post it up when I'm certain. If you're on facebook there is an event "10 Tactics film screening Dunedin" with more information and the screening. The website for the film is http://www.informationactivism.org/

As for the Centre for Social Innovation, I just moved here today and it should be set to fill anytime soon. If you're from a not-for-profit organisation working towards ethical, socially-minded goals, then a base in our office could be free! I will have to confirm that though and I can get back to you about it. Glad to hear you're interested:)

G'day Celia :)
Thanks for informing us all about this.
When is this opening? And the film screening?
Thanks :)
Steve.
